We went to The Niece’s pre-school graduation this afternoon. The other kids were cute but none of them could touch The Niece’s effervescence. She had full-on excitement, smiles, giggles, waves and appropriate use of being out of step with all the other kids during their musical performances.
The new niece, whom I still must moniker, was more interested in flapping the graduation program and drinking her dinner (that’s my kind of girl, heh). I did have to break the news to her that she doesn’t have a sister so much as a ham bone. I think maybe my joke went over her head, but I’m sure she’ll laugh about it later.
