Here is my niece Cora with "Sledder" who is a "real dog"! He has his own little blanket and pillow, and his head must be laid on the pillow and he must be tucked in with his head sticking out from under the blanket each night. Sledder also has a shoe box which is his "litter box," and he must use it before bed and immediately upon rising each morning.

Cora and my mom adore each other. She is the first of my nieces and nephews who really have no connection to me. She won't kiss me or sit on my lap and doesn't even want to touch me. LOL. She is an odd child.

As you can see, she has no problem kissing grandma!

Caleb and Jack are deeply engrossed in destroying the rebel forces in their Star Wars game. Caleb is in the process of devouring a pilgrim hat.

There you can see the storm trooper destroying the rebel forces. The location here is my mo's living room.

Caleb wanted me to take his picture pumping his fist in victory after slaughtering a massive amount of rebels.

Cora and Sledder getting into the action of the video game.

My brother Jack with his children Caleb and Cora. He could never deny paternity of either of them--they both look like him.

My foolhardy sister Tammy gave Caleb a slingshot. I shudder to think of the objects he will shoot at Cora with that thing. Here he was showing off a power pose, released the sling and smacked his own ear, poor little guy!

Cora would dearly love to get in on the video game, but is just "too little" to have control over the devices.

I don''t know why this pose struck me as so cute, but it did. She was so fascinated by the game that she was mesmerized, I think.

Here is Sledder under his blanket, ready for bed. Cora tucked him in, snug as can be.
