Beware of this holiday season because games are afoot.  Last weekend Kelly came downstairs dressed head to toe in white, and told me she and and Sara were playing “Ninja’.  Oh, I see.  Kelly is a day person, which is why she’s in all white.  She likes to do her killin’ around lunchtime.

I think what’s important is that they both remembered their tea-time gloves.  A) Ninjas don’t leave fingerprints. B) Being a stealthy warrior assassin doesn’t mean you should forget your ladylike manners.  “Pardon me, I’ve been sent to kill you.  I do apologize for the inconvenience, but I can promise it will be a creative, quiet, and orderly way to die. Biscuit with your tea?”  Sara was having all sorts of issues with her disguise, so who do you consult when your Ninja face won’t stay put?  That’s right…you ask a Ninja:

He will take you seriously.  Mommy?  Will not.  However, she will grab the camera in fits of laughter and take your picture.  Back to it ma’ ladies.  There are parties to host and bad guys to capture. Stay clean, because there are some things even this Momma can’t launder out of white costumes. “Innards” being the first thing to come to mind…
