The Picture of Innocence

We have been swamped with birthday parties. Katherine had 5 in April alone. The picture here shows her riding Spot at one of them.

Just looking at the picture, you can't tell that a nor'easter was moving in and it was pouring rain outside. But we felt obliged to attend this particular party. The birthday girl happened to be sporting a new haircut with a conspicuous gap in the front. According to her mom, Katherine was maybe, possibly, probably responsible for this gap.

Now, I should say that Katherine has denied any involvement in, or knowledge of, how this happened. And here in America, one is innocent until proven guilty. But she has, on more than one occasion, admired those beautiful golden curly locks. Hmmmm....

In any case, we gave this little girl a VERY NICE birthday gift.
