Lydia Time

Lydia fed the ducks.

She would toss a piece of bread and say,
"Here you go ducks! Here's some bread for you!"


Old Goosey Lucy and Lydia stood eye to eye.



This is a Chuck, a cross between a chicken and a duck.
Kidding! I made that up, but he did look part chicken with the red on his head. He was a little intimidating because he was hissing instead of quacking.
Poor Chuck, he was really ugly!


Lydia had a great idea: "Let's go to McDonalds!"
She ordered a Happy Meal with chicken nuggets, french fries and chocolate milk. When I asked her if I could have a french fry she said, "No, not one!"

Lydia noticed the spots of tar on my car and said,
"Grandma, I love the polk-a-dots on your car. They look really good! When the rain washes them off, you can put some more on!"

Lydia was explaining the grandparent situation to me.
"There is Grammy, you're not Grammy, you're Grand-MA.
Then there is Grandpa."
I asked, "How do you know if you're talking about Grandpa Barber or Grandpa Cruze?"
Lydia: "Grandpa is Grandpa, but we can call Bacca whatever we want."


And by the way, pink is her favorite color!

Cute! She had the best time ever. On Thursday she mentioned to me that "Grandma said she would take me to feed the ducks again." short silence... "Maybe on this day." I assured her that you would, but probably it would not be for many, many days.

So cute, especailly the part where she wouldn't let you have a french fry. Maybe she thought you were on a no-eat french fry diet to go along with your no-eat chocolate diet. Are you still staying strong?
