our imaginary menagerie

I am seriously overdue with sharing our news, and will be getting caught up -- promise! And, the best way to start getting caught up is simply to start.

We have a wonderful menagerie of imaginary animals (all created and named by Luke) living with us these days:

• Carl Wilson, the peacock, to whom Luke throws imaginary bread crumbs
• Louis Armlance, the kitty cat, who also happens to be a cousin of Louis Armstrong
• Norbert (last name unknown), the dragon who just joined the gang

Norbert sits next to Luke at meals, and I've been laying out a placemat and plate for him (Norbert, that is). And, yes, Luke's imaginary animals have last names as well as first names!
