People,

From the files of Ladybetrothed Sarah on the symbiosis of infants and their surroundings.

On Saturday, LBS had the chance to babysit for her friend Liz who has an adorable, almost year old hunk of baby who goes by Jack. Of course, being 28 and just entering the period of female life known as "The Baby Crazyzoic Era" she jumped at the chance.

Now, at one, Jack is fully testing his ability to crawl at the expense of other things, like not spitting up on the floor. That's right, after Sarah fed him he apparently become a crawling, puking machine - never stopping or being fazed at all by his digestive machinations.

Anyway, being a good babysitter, Sarah hit the kitchen to get some sponges and disinfectant. However, when she came back, she saw that her efforts were for naught. Baby Jack had petered himself out and was no longer a puke factory. Also, all the places he spit up were spotlessly clean. And the puppy sitting beside him wagging his tail had a huge happy look in his eyes.

Nasty.
