"Come live with me and be my love,/ And we will all the pleasures prove,/ That valleys, groves, hills and fields,/ Woods or steepy mountains yields." --Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593)

A Ten Month Old Little Helper



Claire passed the ten month mark on the 25th. She's turning into quite the "helper" around the house, just a few examples of her idea of helping out...



  • Climbing onto the dishwasher when we are trying to load or unload it

  • Trying to get all the dirt out of the plants or pull their leaves when I'm watering them

  • Attempting to grab the vacuum's cord while I am vacuuming

  • Chasing the broom or mop when we are cleaning the floors

  • Making desperate passes at the computer cables when we are on the computer (like right now)
  • Grabbing at the pen or papers when I'm grading papers

(Can you tell she's feeling back to normal? By last Saturday night she was already back to chasing Hem around the house.)
