Katie and I have a morning routine…work day or not.

She gets me up between 5:30 and 6:00 a.m.  I haven’t set an alarm clock in months and I’m always early to work.  And I get a nice early start to my weekends too!  Her Dad on the other hand says she never gets him up early on those mornings when I’m not at home.  Hmmmm…

Anyway, after we’re up we head for the bathroom where she naps on the floor while I shower and get ready for the day.  Apparently her job is done and it’s time for a little shut eye.

But yesterday morning as we emerged from the bathroom I heard a distant but distinct roll of thunder.  Katie wasn’t sure what she heard and she tensed up and looked at me, ready to take care of any clear and present danger.  I grabbed her thunder shirt and hustled her into it.  I wanted to avoid waking her Dad if we could.

Obviously her thunder shirt does not deter her from eating.  Nothing deters her from eating, and wearing this shirt only emphasizes how model thin she is.  She thinks it shows off her curves very well.

But shortly after breakfast the thunder rolled in for real.  Would the shirt work?  Would Katie feel more secure and less like she needed to defend her home from the marauding weather?

I think not.

Silly girl.

It’s too hot for excellent adventures.  It’s too hot to play.  It’s too hot to go on a walk.  It’s just too hot.

So Katie would like to remind all of us that it wasn’t that long ago that we thought it was too cold out to play.  Or go on excellent adventures.

Just saying.
