Always the Showoff

Last night, Dad had to go in to work late from 7 to 9. He had to present the findings of the research he and the research team had conducted and so, because that’s just about as close to a date as Mom and he get nowadays, Mom and Avey came along.

Avey, who thrives on being the center of attention, felt that what she had to say was just as important as (if not more than) what Dad had to say. So she sat with Mom and flirted and talked with everyone around her until Mom had to take her out, missing a chunk of what Dad had to say.

Of course, she was a big hit and everyone commented on how adorable she is. She gave just about everyone a smile who would even glance in her direction. Then, as soon as we got home, she didn’t want to go to sleep, but was so very tired. Here’s an artist’s rendition:

That, and she does a whole lot of talking but doesn’t say anything.
