| Maddie with her favorite BALL of all....in her great-grandparents' yard. |
Last night we celebrated my mother's birthday at their house. Madison was her busy self as usual. But this time came with a twist. She is fascinated by a "gazing ball" that is a garden decoration in my parents' yard. No one wanted to take her out to see it AGAIN because of the mosquitos that were in abundance out there. So she decided to take care of that herself. Front door...easy to conquer. Out she went. Thank goodness, I saw her go and grabbed her as she made her escape onto the front porch. Back in we went and locked the door. In a little while Maddie thought she'd like to go out on the back deck. Deck door....no problem. Out she went and I ran just in time to catch her as she headed towards the steps out there. Whew! Back inside...locked the door! Went around and checked ALL the doors. Garage door, basement door, check, check. We thought we were safe then. After a little while, she had had enough of adult conversation and looked for something to do. She disappeared and within seconds my mom headed toward her bedroom to find her. Maddie stood there by her great-grandmother's bed looking very innocent. Inside the master bath the water was running in the tub. Good grief! She spent the rest of the evening running back and forth, charming us all, swinging her arms, asking for the "BAWL" in her southern accent. She finally ran out of steam and her parents got her home and put her to bed. She never woke up as they got her ready, except to say "ball" one more time in her sleep. :)

Oh Bambi, this is one cute little girl and it sounds like she knows how to use her charm to get what she wants. I think she needs a gazing ball of her own.
