Since her departure five weeks ago, Edie's Amma has knit her three sweaters and two hats. E still has some room to grow in the blue one, but I rather love to wear big sweaters and so I assume she does too. I call it her "house coat."
Amma is doing her part to keep the USPS in business by sending not only hand crafts but also toys that she believes Little E will enjoy. Strike "believes" and substitute "knows with a truth deeper than the ocean." One such toy is a rain forest mobile. It's a cute mobile, and I'm sure it will provide entertainment. We already have a mobile, but I love my mother, and she feels so very very strongly about the existing mobile's inadequacy and the vast superiority of the rain forest version that, truly, who am I to argue?
Yes, I know that she needs a rainforest mobile. Her other grandmother would agree. Rakel left out that the mobile, the animals that circle around her head, dance to Beethoven, Mozart and one more that I can't remember. It's taking a long time to get batteries and if it wasn't for the volcanic ash, I'd be tempted to deliver it myself. Sorry little e, amma is trying.
