First Grader Hospitality

Parents and grandparents everywhere wonder what a child might be when he/she grows up. It's a natural thought. (Personally, I am mostly hoping for "be kind.") Doctor? Farmer? Judge? Auto mechanic? Teacher? Salesman? And the list goes on and on.

Well, after the greeting I got when I arrived here for several days of "Mimi duty" while the parents are away, I'm thinking that Little Sister might have a future in the Air B&B industry. She helped take my things upstairs. And when we walked into my room, she gave me the tour.

"Mimi, I put these animals (see the penguin and cat above) in your bed 

so you won't be lonely."

"And I thought you might want something to read at bedtime, 

so here are some books for you."

"If you need something to do, (while I am the sole adult in the house this weekend) 

I left you some activities."

"And there are TWO bottles of water for you this time. 

I don't want you to get thirsty."

And I found these little notes stuck all around the room. There is no doubt that I am loved. Let's hope that by the time the weekend is over, she still thinks I'm fun.
