It Was A Very Good Day......To Be Silly!!

No matter how old you are as someday you will see, dear Marlee, there is always a good day to be silly. These "silly days" often happen after a day of very hard work, or when you are very very tired. Today is both of those things.

The huge sale was over. People were still coming in to shop, but everything was going just fine.

 Grandma B was decorating a cake for company. It looked too pretty to eat. She was looking serious wasn't she? Then Marlee walked by and all of a sudden Grandma B said, "Hey, Marlee, you want some frosting?" Well my goodness sakes what is a girl to do but just open her mouth. Yummy!
Then in the Daycare there was Noah and his Grammy being goofy with french fries sticking out of their mouths. Oh they were laughing and having such a good time.
But wait there is a little boy sitting at the table eating with a football helmet on. Ha ha. Such fun.
But poor little Joshua couldn't believe his eyes. He had never seen Grandma B be so silly or Grammy either. It seemed like to him that everyone was being silly. It must be a special day!
But did you know that people aren't the only things that can be silly. Yes, that's right, dogs can be silly too. Do you remember Penuche, Ginny's Great Aunt Diane's little dog? Well, she likes cookie dough. Look at her, she can't wait to eat some of that cookie dough that Ginny's Aunt is mixing up. If you look really really close you will see her lick her lips (chops). She just can't hardly wait for Aunt Diane to "accidentally" drop some cookie dough on the floor. Ha ha.
Marlee loves cookie dough and so does Ginny. Do you like cookie cough or baked cookies the best?
Well it seemed like everyone at Marleewood was having a good time. Marlee and her friends were all laughing and being goofy.
But somewhere there was a little blue 4 wheeler. It's little motor was running softly. The rider could see Marleewood, but didn't go onto the parking lot.
I wonder if Marlee will see it today? Probably not because she is very busy having fun with her friends.
Suddenly Grandma B said, "Shh, I think I hear something. Let's be quiet and listen."
They all got very quiet. No one heard a thing.
"Boy, Marlee, you have me hearing things now. We had just better forget what you think you saw. It was probably nothing."
They all agreed except A.J. He knew that Marlee had seen something because she was really serious about showing him where she had seen that rider on the blue 4 wheeler the other day.
The blue 4 wheeler was gone when he got there that day. But you see A.J. believed Marlee.  Today A.J. didn't say anything. He just nodded his head at Marlee. She understood the nod. They were friends...
Long long ago there was an elderly lady that was Grandma Lu's friend. She would give her family "the nod" if she approved of something that they did.
It looks like A.J. and Marlee may have the same kind of relationship; a quiet strong friendship. Sometimes words are just not needed.
