Vaccination day

This was the before picture for Pia.

Siblings

In birth order from left: Charlie, Marilyn, Phil, Galen and James. Second youngest Fred was not in Kansas.

Stuff Mara says

Occasionally at the dinner table, and once during Mass: "I smell cow poop!"

Whenever she sees a frog: "It gonna eat me!" (This is often accompanied by tears.)

When she feels the need to give me instructions on keeping some item safe: "Don't let the chicken get it!"

Ready for my close-ups!

Four days of fever

But she made it through last night and was her old self today. Boy did she look rundown for a while.
