Went for a walk with Katherine this afternoon, since she’s been suffering from cabin fever.
It was a true joy to see her excitement. Her curiosity over what she saw. A crocus! I must pick it! What’s that?! I must run to it!
There was a boxer running loose in the neighborhood. I’ve seen him before (usually with his owner running after him). Nice animal, kind of skittish. Ordinarily I’d make friendly noises to him, maybe even try to get close enough to read his collar for a phone number. Instead … all I could think of is how few boxer-sized meals Katherine would make.
Doggie!
Not now, dear. Let’s look at those crocuses again.
