Chickpea's List of Hostess Do's and Don'ts

Do offer your guest a reassuring pat if he is missing his Mom and Dad a little.

Don't pull your guest's pacifier out of his mouth and wave it tauntingly in front of him. (Audrey forgot her manners momentarily and did just that. Liam was quietly appauled.)


Do show your softer side by hanging out with guests in your p.j.'s. Don't wake the guests at 4:00 in the morning. Just don't. (Margaret and Ruth visited us on their way from Vermont back to Seattle. Lovely to see you both!)


Do pose for keepsake photographs. Don't spit up on the guests in their traveling clothes.


A little adendum for anyone who was worried by our last posting: sleep has gone much better in the last few days. Thank you for your concern, Aunt Janna.
