EMMA LOVES LUCY

The girls come to work with me everyday during the summer...with the exception of camp...or playdates...or vacations...and all those other fun activities reserved for summer. Frequently, a bag is packed for the shop day. Sometimes they'll bring soccer balls...or knitting supplies...or air soft guns. One never knows.

But whenever one of them is sick you can almost guarantee a Disney movie will sneak it's way in the bag. Certain movies comfort the sick like a security blanket. Almost always I can bet on a day of watching Jungle Book, Mary Poppins or Alice in Wonderland. Yes, one of those 3. They happen to be the 3 movies that began our (ever-expanding) Disney collection. As young patients of the Payne household, they'd find themselves on a pallet on the living room floor with one of these 3 movies playing. As they've gotten older, the girls have quietly taken it upon themselves to make sure they have thier fix to make it through their sick days.

Miss Emma is having a bout with her asthma...and thusly is not feeling well. This morning she packed her bag and we ran out the door for her doctor's appointment. When we made it to work and unloaded from the car...there in her bag was the evidence that she must be growing up. There were no wandering man-cubs... no flying nannies... and no singing lillies to be found. Apparently another has taken their place:

Yes...that crazy red-head will be entertaining us today.
All day.

Emma's favorite line (and Charlee's too): Fred : She said my mother looks like a weasel.
Lucy : Ethel, apologize.
Ethel: I'm sorry your mother looks like a weasel.

My fave:
From the washing machine episode: They spend the whole show fighting over the washer ("It's MINE"..."No, it's MINE"...etc...etc). Then (while on the porch) Lucy & Ricky are tugging the machine one way, and Fred & Ethel are tugging it the other way...and it falls off the ledge and tumbles down the building side and crashes on the ground. And Lucy says..."Look what happened to YOUR washing machine!"
