Blah

That pretty much sums it up. Cloudy skies, bathrooms that need cleaning, copious dog hair on the floor and a malfunctioning vacuum cleaner, a full day alone with Cubby without the brief but welcome distractions of "Da" and "Gwa," about whom he inquires approximately ten times a minute.

"Gwa? Gwa? Da? Da? Da? Gwa? Gwa?" GIVE IT UP, KID--and try saying "Ma" occasionally in recognition of the one person who waits on you like a servant 24/7, okay?

Yeah. Blah. But at least I have fresh tomatoes to eat with my toast and eggs this morning. That's something, anyway.

    You'll have to teach him the mum mum song.

    Sounds like a day trip to somewhere in the trusty 'new to you' vehicle, could be in order.
    I vote that Cubby have his own pictures of Da and Gwa for days like this.

    Cubby must feel secure in his knowledge that you are a fixture in his life.

    Knowing the MiL so well, I am sure that she is delighted to be so popular and to be known as Gwa! Mary in MN.
    P.S. Sounds like you are overdue for another trip to the small city for a movie and beer.

    Agree with Mary in MN...I have no idea what movies are playing, but a beer sounds in order.

    Maybe he's taking inventory. Ma is right here, so where are the others? My boy used to list off family members as we told him where they were. Mama? Right here. Dada? At work. Goo-goo? That was his sister - she didn't mind the nickname, since he couldn't say Joy!
