And The Niece Said…
Aunt Anna…what’s pub – puberry – pubity –
Puberty?
Yeah. What’s puberty?
It’s when your body starts changing in different ways to become an adult.
Ew! I don’t want to do that! I don’t want to get wrinkles!
Hahahahahaha! No, kid. The wrinkles come much later. You get those just for getting old. You get boobs and your period with puberty.
Period? I don’t want a period!
Sorry. It’ll come with the territory.
Hey! I’m going to get a pet turtle and teach it The Hokey-Pokey!
And with that the subject was changed and she started showing me how turtles do The Hokey-Pokey.
She was here last week with her mom and dad and we all had a large time. They left yesterday morning and I miss them already. They got home to Oklahoma just in time for a snowstorm today! Sylvie said she couldn’t believe that she was swimming outside here just a week ago.
I got constant little hugs, hand holds and kisses. We took turns kicking each others ass playing cards. It was awesome.
