Katie is now walking, but in an emergency she reverts to the rapid-crawl. I'm not sure what happened next after this incident, but I don't think the police were involved.
The youngest shoplifter? |
The youngest shoplifter? |
Lives of great men will remind us
We can make our lives sublime
And,departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time.
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o’er life’s solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Longfellow

I saw a jolly hunter
With a jolly gun
Walking in the country
In the jolly sun.
In the jolly meadow
Sat a jolly hare.
Saw the jolly hunter.
Took jolly care.
Hunter jolly eager-
Sight of jolly prey.
Forgot gun pointing
Wrong jolly way.
Jolly hunter jolly head
Over heels gone.
Jolly old safety catch
Not jolly on.
Bang went the jolly gun.
Hunter jolly dead.
Jolly hare got clean away.
Jolly good, I said.

That look of innocence! Love how she hightailed it out of there when found out...a girl after my own heart.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Conrad, for the update. Katie grows lovelier, and livelier, with every passing month.
Shoplifter? No, but I think she's learning retail-therapy earlier than most of us do. You go, girl!
Shops put brightly wrapped sweets at toddler height - they get what they deserve!
ReplyDeleteI think there's a case here for Contributory Negligence.
Which makes me think of a topic related to your last post: the euphemisms used by authority to excuse their mistakes and excesses: you know the sort of thing - collateral damage, friendly fire, enhanced coercive interrogation technique. Not calling a spade a spade, and all rather sickening. Why do we let them get away with it?
Lovely photos by the way.
Mark
The Crow - Glad you enjoyed YOUR post Martha.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, it has been suggested that I was driving the getaway car.
Beating the bounds - The torture one is a masterpiece, almost admirable.
