I have read the three posts of your herein. Did not receive any xtra dollar cents but I enjoyed each of them. Aria's a cutie, as pictured here, and whiffle ball ... we had a ball playing home run derby smacking the orb of plastic over the suburban roofs of Levittown, Pa.

Hello jmdg1954: Your posting here has captured my heart. I laughed, and I laughed thinking about how our little friend here don't care about the mess and how it looks...but rather how it tastes...approve of it...and she's inquiring and requiring our approval too. I guess all I can do...is scream for her mom. You truly have created a winner here, my friend. Encore, encore, more, more...ha ha ha. God bless the both of you, little Lu Lu...and jmdg1954. Cordially: rhonnie69.

Life in the world of babies and toddlers. I loved this from the perspective of both a parent and a grandparent. No greater love.

Nicely done, Poppa! Children can find fun in almost anything. Seemingly the messier, the better. When they can draw adults into their world, it's a beautiful thing. Thanks for sharing your sweet story!

She certainly is a cutie. Kids are adorable and when they are messy it can be hard to not love on them even though you might get a little messy. Oh well, the cake washes off, no big deal and who knows maybe cake is good for the scalp.

Hi, John.
Your granddaughter, Aria is beautiful. What a wonderful story you shared. Aria created a new kind of hair conditioner, mushed cake to stimulate the scalp. LOL
She sounds wonderful and like your other grandchildren, such a delight.
Bye
Rosalyne :)
