Birdie "Reads"

Lately, after being tucked in, Clara can be seen, and heard, reading to "her friends": Tink, Ariel, Bupha, Fluffy, and Wilbur.  Wilbur is usually front and center on her lap since she (Birdie's Wilbur is a girl) is quite a bit smaller than the rest of the gang.  Sometimes, she doesn't even let herself be tucked in.  She just takes the books that were just read to her and announces, "I going to read to my friends," at which point it is clear that Julie or Ted is dismissed.  Then, she "reads."  Tonight, she read If You Give a Pig a Pancake to her pig (that's Wilbur).

Pay attention, Wilbur.
"It's true.  My lips are a little chapped.  That's what happens to the fair skinned in the winter whose Aquaphor ointment is kept up high in their cubby."
