Fresh From the Market!

Morgan is apparently feeling needy and attention-hoggy!


She's normally quite content to keep to her royal princess self, and we had best remember our places as lowly foodgivers-who-must-never-be-tardy. Then she will surprise us with behavior that makes her unspeakably irresistable! Alas, the spell is broken the moment either of us gives in to the urge and scoops her into an affectionate squeeze.

Here's an example of the teenagey angst she seems to project directly to the brainpan: '(*tsah* rolls eyes) Ohh! I can't beLIEVE you DID that! You FLATTENED my FUR! (hands gesturing, eyes rolling) My *FUR*! (emphatic head bop-flip, another eyeroll; it's a workout!) *tsahuh!* You JUST don't underSTAND!!!' (flounces dramatically out of the room to pout on the pipework above the clothesdryer.)

No kidding. So we are avoiding that exchange (as entertaining as it is) in favor of more lovely moments like these. Coming from Morgan, this is extra precious!
