The Current Critter

Right now, Little Miss Sassafras is my only critter. While it is her belief that she is twenty, she is truly seven years old. Miss Sass came to me in July. We have had six weeks of detoxing and I think she is finally learning to be a kid. Last night, Miss Sass admitted that she is surprised that she likes books so much "because there is so much cool stuff inside each one!" Imagine my surprise when the offer to read while eating a brownie elicited an "oooooh" warranted for a trip to Chuck E. Cheese. How fun it is to show someone, a sassy someone at that, that books are cool, cats are cool, walks around the blocks are cool....even 2nd grade can be cool.
