So I wanted to known who those unfortunate people - Greek gods - were who had been saddled
with the abysmal job - Hades and Persephone, perhaps - of being my (god)parents.
And Hera answered while slapping Johnny's fingers away from the cake - he is her favorite,
but still have to eat his veggies first *O* - "Why, Athena and Hefaistos of course, little birdie!"
Of course ...
The goddess of wisdom and the god of smiths and other artisans - just the right parents
for a dumb bird with ten thumbs - screwed on backwards - on each hand -_-
SURPRISED EDITOR: Ten on each hand? .. ouch! I just asked *o* You are
not dumb, sweetie *o* And you can use your hands very well too *O*
That might be, love *o* ... although I sometimes don't think so *sighs VERY
depply *
Johnny also protested that day in our kitchen when I clucked something similar and both
Mumsy, Grandie and uncle Hermes of course agreed with the charmer *o* They would have agree even if he had called them the
original mob -O*
COMFORTING AND KISSING JOHNNY: Or they love YOU, my little baby birdie
*o* ... and the expression 'the original mob' you have from Daddy Hermes so it's not like they don't
know it - and he agrees *O*
He does, yes *o*
Any way - Grandie tried to explain while sitting down to the feast she had just made
out of the scraps left over in the fridge. And here is what she said as far as I remember ...
"You see, kiddies - that there soap bubble" here she pointed with a fond smile at Mumsy
Aphrodite "is waaaaaaay too busy to have children the normal way. But has a cute tongue - now put it away please, darling!
I'm way too old to take notice of naughty little chil - goddesses sticking their ... APHRODITE !!! Stop side tracking me,
girl *O* Anyway ... since she is too busy with surfing among other things - or is it the surfers you like so much ... - I
knitted you two little ones one day I had to listen to you Grandpa Sauce - ZEUS !!! ... you should never have clucked
that nickname for him, Meepsie *o* ... Zeus holding a speech at the Counsel of Gods. I think he broke Fidel Castro's record
in speech length by ten minutes and you imagine me having to be a good wife and look interested all that time ..."
Here we all laughed so much Grandie had to stop her explanation a bit.
But while Johnny got more to drink for us from the fridge beside him she went on "I made
you, baby boy, from the softest angora I could get in pastel colours - yes, I did, Johnny! Ask your dad if you don't
believe an old goddess"
Johnny ever been the gentelman claimed there were NO old goddesses present and got a
kiss on the cheek for his 'trouble' from a happily smiling Grandie.
But uncle Hermes confirmed it saying "Oh, yes - soft and in lovely colours. ... with
a bit of this and that knitted in though just to make it interesting. And when your mama Athena saw that - she was on the
other side of Grandie while father droned - spoke -o* - she asked if Grandie could make a little chick too out of
some material our goddess of weaving - Athena, that is - happened to have in her big tote bag that day.
