The Wonders of Glass

Down here in good ol' Alabamy, the weather is usually balmy enough for me to leave the front door open and the glass door shut in mid January-March. (Not that it has been like that lately, but, I digress) This allows for several things to happen. One, Mollie will sit at the door and bark at every leaf, squirrel, blade of grass, stray cat, etc that happens by. Two, Dylan, notices Mollie barking, and will crawl over and see what all the fuss is about.

*I love how in this picture, Mollie looks like.... Hey.... He took my spot.*
It was, apparently, a decent place for him to learn to master pulling up and sitting on his knees. Don't worry... there are very few smashed face imprints on the glass.
And, lets face it, tiny face imprints are very cute. He has only recently discovered
how to get all the way up on his feet.
It also allows for Kari to go "scootering" while I do things like pay the bills, or make dinner. She has found the perfect scootering run... She goes up and down the front porch. And, I will be danged if she isn't improving.
On this particular day, Kaitlyn had over stepped the boundaries I had set for her, and thus had to come inside. This is Kari lecturing her (on my behalf I am sure....) on the virtues of staying within set boundaries. However, it sounded quite a lot like "You have to go insiiii-iiiiide."
Will the wonders of glass never cease?
