What a girl wants

Saffron knows that her birthday is coming up. She tells me all the time what she wants. So lately she points out all the things she wants in magazines and books.

One of our favorite books is "Go Dog, Go" by P.D. Eastman. Everytime we read it now, she makes indicates what she wants wrapped up for her special day. Here is a partial list:
  1. A red tree
  2. A blue tree
  3. A yellow tree (I asked her where she would put the trees. She said, "Outside!")
  4. A pink helicoper
  5. A jack hammer
  6. A hammock
  7. A dog house
  8. A very long ladder

I really hope she won't be too disappointed when she only gets a new toy.

I have to ask-a dog house? Is that a hint for a new pet of a certain species? Please pass info on to Melinda that a particular neighborhood park by us now seems to be open again.

She does like dogs, but we're pretty sure we aren't getting pets anytime soon. Hard to know which one she wants more; the dog or the jackhammer.
