Words of Advice if Einar Comes to Visit




1.) Make sure that your telephones are out of his reach--this afternoon he called 911 while I was downstairs getting his shoes for our walk!

2.) Have at least 2 spoons or forks available for him because they all seem to end of either on the ground or stuck upside down in his gooiest bowl.

3.) Even if you don't store your Tupperware in the living room, offering him cooking and food storage devices will make his day, especially if you toss in a ball or two the size of a tennis ball or smaller.

4.) Find Jakers on PBS. It is his favorite show on TV--something about those farm animals with the Irish accents glue his attention to the screen.

5.) Feed him regularly.

6.) Have a blast with him exchanging clicking noises made with your tongues.

7.) Take him outside for a walk or to the park. He LOVES sand and rocks.
