Phyllis arrived on the 19th in the evening. I picked her up after I got off of work. She was tired and it was raining so we went straight home where she was greeted by a very frequent house guest, A-Wall, my niece's cat.
I think he had a real crush on her because............
...... he would not leave her side! Phyllis was nice enough to chat and chill out with A-Wall before going to bed.
The next morning, more rain! Sorry Phyllis but Welcome to Seattle! But she was enthusiastic and even excited about visiting my job and meeting a bunch of lively one year olds. :)
Phyllis met with the local animals. They talked about Seattle weather and Phyllis's travels. They were a little jealous but enjoyed her company and stories from around the world.
Circle time with Phyllis! This is my co-teacher Jessie who did the honors of reading with Phyllis to the kids who, surprised us all, sat through most of the story :D They loved looking at the pictures and touching the pages. :D
After circle Phyllis joined in the classroom ruckus of a young toddler classroom. She visited the sensory table, played with blocks, played hide 'n' seek and went on a color parade through our center with the little ones.
Phyllis was rather pooped from all the fun with the little ones, after lunch (she is really great with kids :D) she was able to take a nap while the little ones slept.
Phyllis was happy to spot the Space Needle even though we did not have time to go. But I promised the next time she visits, we will take her.
I thought the day at the childcare center would have wiped her out but Phyllis had other plans!
Phyllis and my oldest brother Na'eem :)
A-Wall was so happy to see Phyllis again. Love at first and second sight! :D
Phyllis got to meet my niece and A-Wall's brother, Cali-Fat. Cali-Fat was very intrigued as was my niece. She really did not want me to send Phyllis off on the next stop of her world tour.

Lucky Phyllis! What a wonderful time she had with you! She loves kids, and classrooms, so I bet she had tons of fun. And clearly she and A-Wall hit it off in a big way. I sense Pen Pal letters in the future :) Thank you so much for hosting Phyllis and showing her such a great time, Saba!
Looks like Phyllis had a great time in Seattle! Wow, a whole class of one year olds? I bet that was ablast!
What a lovely visit to Seattle. Love the cat's reaction. And, it was fun you took her to school. Bet the one-year-olds loved her -- hope they didn't try to chew her.:) Glad you had fun. She's going to be a celebrity when she returns to Susanna.
lol! it really was!
no, we were careful not to let them have too much fun :D When things got a little too exciting, we practiced gentle touches on Phyllis :)
You are very welcome! It was a joy having her visit:)
They really did! A-Wall is such a lover ;)
Jessie loved the book as well, just wanted to let you know that. she also loved the illustrations.
This was great! I so love that you had the little ones practice gentle touches on Phyllis! And A-Wall is amazing!
Oh! I'm in love with A-Wall. No wonder Phyllis had such a great time. What a beautiful cat!
