Hot Pockets

 

Alice: Paul, how do you like our new dresses?

Paul: Uh...they're okay, I guess.

Lydia: >Hmph< You needn't be so effusive about it.

Paul: Well, I do like the big pockets.

I bet they're a handy place to keep a sandwich.

Alice: What?!? That's ridiculous!

Lydia: Girls don't keep sandwiches in their dress pockets.

Paul: Whatever.

Alice: Actually, I'm feeling a bit peckish.

Lydia: Should we have a bite to eat?

Alice: We probably should have been honest with him.

Lydia: >Pfft< Girls gotta have some secrets...

FInally Sprung!

Daphne: Spring has truly arrived!  Isn't it glorious, Dan Ryan?

Dan Ryan: Spring has indeed sprung; and about time, too.  

I thought it would never get here.

Dan Ryan: Have you ever noticed how Spring on the calendar

never seems to align with 'actual' Spring?

Daphne: A lot of things are like that.  It's the big people.

They try hard, but they never get it right, poor things.

Daphne: But we made it!  That's all that matters.  All's well that ends well.

Hm, didn't someone write a play with that name?

Dan Ryan: I'm pretty sure it was Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Daphne: You know, for a posh girl like myself, Spring can be a hectic time of the year.

All of the garden parties and soirees, strolls and picnics.  It can be exhausting--in a good way.

Dan Ryan: I know just what you mean.

I need to start scheduling all of my lawn chair naps.

Dan Ryan: Hello, old friend.  It's good to see you.

Our Morning Constitutional

 Daddy John: Benjamin Roy ("BR") decided he'd join me on my morning walk today.

BR: Let's go, Daddy John!  Shake a leg!

I've got my best walking kicks on.

BR: It's going to be a beautiful day!

BR: Hey, a little library!  Can we check it out?

BR: Aw, there isn't anything here for kids.  Darn.

BR: Mmmm, lilacs...

BR: Be sure to look both ways when crossing the tracks!

BR: What flower do you see in the mirror every day?

Tu-lips! Get it?

BR: Who'd ever want 'Rat Boy' as a nickname?  Ew.

BR: I need to find a nice rock for skipping!

BR: Hey, was Holly Belle here?

Looks like the park rangers tried to clean up after her.

The Eternal Problem

 

Chance Victor: Daddy John said it's time to start packing my clothes for the Columbus Festival.

But I have nothing to wear!
