Fourth Sister – 08/20/14
…and, ha!…what do they know about bravery…and daring? No, even the little dogs know better and they scamper away and quietly hide and take cover until they hear that first ah…ahhhh! And so…well, Washington has nothing up on me. All he had to do was cross a river in a boat…well, maybe it was cold and in winter…and well, the army, he had to bring them along otherwise what was the point of going to the other side? Well…? No, but everyday, and I mean everyday, I have to get up and I bravely wrap myself in my robe, and while it is not red, white, and blue, it is a shocking pink to bring out some color in my face in the morning and bravely I go to the kitchen to start my day, braving the walk down the hall, across all sorts of rooms till I get to the kitchen and pour a cup of coffee and then I say “ahhh” – that is brave and Washington has nothing up on me.
