This is a man. A little man. A little man that tastes GREAT. I ate a whole bowlful of them this morning, and then I had some more out of Eo’s bowl. Mmm mmm yummy.
I had a fabulous night’s sleep last night – the bedding in this place is stupendous – and slept all the way from when I went to sleep at 8:15 to when I woke up at 6:30. I was happy, Auntie and Uncle were happy, Eo was happy, Emma was happy. Everyone was really, really happy.
Then came the delicious little men, which I have already mentioned. And then came the dancing. These people really know how to party, I must say. Auntie downloaded that totally fantastic Thomas the Tank Engine theme song onto her computer, and she was nice enough to play it over and over and over and over again while I shook it, baby.
Eo and I then developed a fun little game that we have decided to call Scary Chasing Lion. In case you want to try it at home, here’s how it works. First sneak up on someone you know really well. Then roar really loud in their ears. It sounds hard, but don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of it. I gotta tell you, this is maybe the funniest thing you’ll ever see. Eo spent about 45 minutes roaring at me, and I just about busted a gut. That guy. What a card.
Lunch was delicious at Camp Sullivan today: delicate little pieces of turkey, accompanied by squares of Cheddar and grapes a la Julienne. Suffice it to say I cleaned my plate.
Eo and I were having so much fun, we didn’t really nap this afternoon. Each of us went to our quarters for what Auntie and Uncle like to call “Quiet Rest Time.” I don’t know who’s quiet, though – personally, I think it’s an excellent time to sing songs really, really loud.
After naptime came the best part of the day. Eo and I put on our outdoor gear and went to the Field. I spent a lot of time working on the fire engine – it seems to be in pretty good shape, but unfortunately, we didn’t get any emergency calls.
So instead, Eo and I did our workout. First, we kicked balls back and forth. Then, we put some sticks in the dump truck. After that, we took turns pushing each other around on the bike. Eo had kind of a hard time pushing me – not sure why – but I thought it was a cinch pushing him.
Well, as you can imagine, we worked up quite the appetite out there, so we barreled inside and gorged ourselves on yogurt, strawberries, and toast. I just couldn’t get enough.
Did you know that this place even has after-dinner entertainment? Tonight, Granny and Grandpa came over and we had a splendid visit. Granny read a fascinating new story called The Saggy Baggy Elephant, and I got to practice my scary roar on her. She really seemed to appreciate how hard I’ve been working on it.
By the time bathtime and stories came around, I was bushed. Out like a light by 7:30. But before I nodded off, I sang one of my little songs that I had been working on to Auntie. It was the long one – you know, the one with all those verses and complicated words. I sang it for quite a while. And I think Auntie liked it a lot.
