  5. It wasn't my lamp. It was one of a pair that I had bought for a client. Still sad, though.

  7. Poor Griffin. Tell him he can hang with Greta who has taken to "sweeping" the walls, including two of my very favorite John Darian plates. So naughty.

  10. I laughed out loud reading your post. We had three girls and somehow they managed to do similar things. My husband is no better.
    What did you call your sweet son? Dead meat? I guess he is today.
    Thanks for the giggle.
