The Parrot and Her Pirates {282}

Dear Miss Dinah,

One thing that happens nearly every morning is Daddy swings you around in his arms and gently tosses you on the bed. You get a hearty giggle going, and a little glint in your eye hinting that you want to go again.

This morning, somebody else got a turn.

It sure made you giggle.

Pizwit actually had so much fun, she asked to do it again, too.

This afternoon while you were napping, Mamma and Daddy got outfitted in costumes.

And when you awoke, we were pirates!

and you were the sweetest little shoulder parrot there could be. We trained you to say "Raa! Raa!" and sort of flap your wings at the phrase, "Trick-or-treat!"

We had a great time visiting friends and neighbors, and of course, the many animals of the evening.

A porcelain pig.

And General.

Of course, General.

Big, strong pirate, and his little parrot buddy. This is one of my favorite pictures of the night.

I love you,

Mamma <3
