Not yet mastering the art of being actively locomotive, Cassandra was magnificent in her crawling
skills. The speed with which she
traveled from sofa to the front door was eerily reminiscent of her unholy older brother.
Even with her sodden
diaper and even though her butt emitted enough methane to fire up a gaslight, Cassandra held her own
in travel time.
Samuel*** watched his baby sister with a villainous smile. Oh the places we will go…the things we will
do.

*** The World of Samuel starts at this site:
and continues in Chronicles of Samuel
Samuel and Cassandra's adventures will take up after summer.

I just got a cold chill.
ReplyDeleteOh the things they will do...true, the house is shivering its timbers.
Deletehaha the house may not be left standing
ReplyDeleteI hope the parents have good insurance.
DeleteThe methane mention brought back memories of days spent with diaper rash, diaper pails, diaper clean up. I'm glad I did that. I'm also glad I'm not doing it now.
ReplyDeleteI'll check out Wednesday Words. It sounds like a "summery" kind of thing I could do. Thanks.
Diaper pails...lots of memories. My son and youngest daughter were two years apart, both in diapers for an overlap of 20 months.
DeleteI hope you stop by Delores' site; she is a delightful.
He will be a good role model, for trouble
ReplyDeleteBetween the two of them, they could change the world. Ender's Game level?
Delete...and the havoc they will wreak! Siblings can concoct some wild adventures.

What is the best short story ever written?
Tossing It Out
Samuel will be her mentor.
DeleteWhat fun. I am looking forward to reading more about Samuel's protege. And wish I could work out how to put accents on words...
ReplyDeleteI never can figure those accent marks either. Glad you will enjoy the new adventures.
DeleteSamuel will teach her well. Everyone should watch out and keep the cleaning supplies up front and close at hand.
ReplyDeletePlus all flammable liquids and garden tools.
DeleteMy gosh! With Samuel to learn from Cassandra will go far.
ReplyDeleteA whole new world for both of them.
DeleteBabies on the move and siblings in collaboration. The parents will never be the same. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt was never the same for us, and I would guess that could be said of all parents.
DeleteYour imagination knows no bounds!
ReplyDeleteI know you love Samuel!
DeleteThis was written so thoughtfully that my eyes are starting and my nostril hairs are singeing from the thoughts of time travelling to Uranus. I shall check out the link.
ReplyDeleteHave a peaceful, fresh weekend, Susan.
Gary :)
Samuel is a favorite character of mine. He lets me be me.
