After taking Miss Taffy aside and scolding her in my best Southern schoolteacher manner, I was sure she would be on her best behavior and I assured Yodi that yes we were indeed so glad we were chosen as her new host family. Yes, indeed, it was our honor and we are going to have a great time showing her around Jackson.
Picture 4: Taffy is finally acting like the sweet Southern little lady she is. Why I can just tell she's just getting so close to her and kissing her on the cheek in that European style. (Now we don't normally do that. We're more the hugging type but I did remind Taffy that Yodi is from Europe and might expect that air kissy thing.)
Picture 5: Now Taffy is whispering sweet things in Yodi's ears. I just knew she'd love to have a sister. Why she's already sharing secrets and plans for the things they are going to do together! How sweet...bless her heart, Taffy can be a sweet thing when she tries.
Picture 6: Oh dear! Oh dear! Why is Yodi giving me such a look of total panic? I do declare I can read it on the girl's face! Turns out Taffy wasn't whispering sweet things in her ear. She was telling Yodi that she had better not touch her toys or else! And she told her that no one likes a tattletale! Oh me, time to rescue poor Yodi. |
