Ticklepinch

Ticklepinch spent the night at the other Grandpa's so old Kadizzle awoke to a calm home.  Yesterday the little neutron ate a couple Christmas cookies and it was game on. Kadizzle had to chase, tickle, and rumble with Sylvie for hours.  Then the time finally came to open the presents.  The little princess was delighted with what she got, but she has no idea the surprise she is in for when she gets home.  For months Sylvie has been begging for a set of gymnastic bars.  So parents and grandparents with weak willpower submitted and the gym set is in the basement back home.  If it wears the energy bug down it will be worth the insane price.  The energy bug inherited a few things from Granny.  The nuclear power is one of the genetic gifts from granny.  Sylvie has endless energy and strength.   Hiking up in the mountains is no problem for this kid.  Also the girl inherited her grannies fascination for the weather.  So grandma got her a little weather station that will constantly tell her the temperature outside.

Old Kadizzle was not as fortunate as the young Sylvie.  A family with nine children has limited resources, but God must have had a heart.  Kadizzle had an Aunt Agnes that worked with her husband at a famous toy factory.  Does it get any better than having an aunt and uncle that work at a toy factory.  One thing that would happen before Christmas was a trip to Aunt Agnes basement.  There one would see a marvelous display of toys.  Somehow Agnes keyed in on what opened your eyes the widest.  Magically those toys would appear under the tree Christmas morning.

As Hazen experiences a blizzard it will be hard to motivate Kadizzle to go out on the creek and gather more firewood for Festivus, but only time will tell if he becomes brave enough to go out today.
