lot of beer for the occasion. Pa was treated to it last night & came home smacking his lips, it went to the right spot, regular stuff such as he used to have years ago, they all like it but Rachie.

Pa has got a little pen for the Baby, she can be put outside and left any where and have her play things inside of it to amuse her, her crib is clean as a whistle.
