a day in the recent life of vera

this is how vera's days go lately:

"oooh i love this book, it's fun. wait a second i hate this book! get it away from me! now! i hate it i hate it! noooooo! wait, why are you taking the book? you are mean! i love the book! and you are taking it! give it back! ok, hi book i love, let me kiss you. wahhhhh i hate this book! why did you put it near me!" and repeat this scenario for every toy, book, and boob in the house. fun times
