[Read more…]Aurick’s mealtime song
For Aurick Virgil, nicknamed Rikki-Tikki, who has developed a habit of shrieking at mealtimes until someone puts food on his tray.
(To the tune of “Just You Wait, Henry Higgins“)
Just you wait, Rikki-Tikki
Just you wait!
You are hungry,
But your breakfast won’t be late!
You’ll have plenty for your belly,
You’ll have eggs and toast and jelly,
Just you wait, Rikki-Tikki, just you wait!
Just you wait, Rikki-Tikki, ’til we pray,
Then we’ll give you something yummy right away.
We aren’t trying to ignore you,
We have lots of goodies for you,
Just you wait, Rikki-Tikki, just you wait!

Aurick turned ten months on the seventh of August, one day before Daddy turned forty-one.
a day in the summer, 2021
“On my birthday, Mama, I would like a whole lot of Cheetos.” Thus declares the Kransling who is across the table from me; it has been duly noted. His birthday, though, is still several months away. He may change his mind.

six, seven months (aurick virgil)
five months (aurick virgil)
Aurick turned five months on the seventh of March (the same day that Anselm turned seven–Happy Birthday, Anselm!)
It has just occurred to me that not only do Anselm and Aurick share a birthdate (both born on the seventh of a month) they also share a first initial (and are the only Kranslings to have first names beginning with A.) It’s almost like we planned it!
