‘look. So low, that it was no -

known by the affectionate

name of **Boobs.’”’
‘(Christened by my
daughter).

“Bubbles” was the one

who wore everything to
‘accent her cute . little

‘else we all know!). “Cleo”
had the blackest eyes short

‘of a boxing ring and —

“Tépper” never appeared
without a hat, even at the
‘pool. We began to wonder if
‘she was bald! . ~

After a week or so of
never-ending changes of
clothing,. my daughter said
to me, “Mom, don’t you

-.think you could put on some
eye makeup? After | all,
you're pretty too.” Most
little girls think their
Monimies are the prettiest! I
scooped on the “goop”!

Still, the models were far
ahead of me in the fashion
department. The _ ship’s
officers were clearly en-
tranced which led to a lot of
comments by my small kid:

Most of us like to be

should make space for both.
