Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for November 09, 2024

Now we know who Hammie gets it from.

Wait a minute, that’s Hammie’s job!

A future armpit quartet.

Isn’t Wren already in preschool?

Ewww…foot massage! I absolutely hate having my feet touched. When we were first married my husband tried to give me a foot massage. It wasn’t pretty. Then there was the doctor whom I TOLD not to touch my feet; just tell me where to put them. She disregarded me & grabbed my foot. I sent her across the room with one kick.

Armpit “noises?” You mean armpit fluffaroonies.

Hammie is working on Wren’s inner tomboy development.

Wanda enjoys some light tickle torture.

And when to say “poophead” and when not to say it.

You learn by doing and through experience you will eventually get it right.

As important as basic phonics and other subjects in pre-k is the young ones learning socialization. Mom and Dad can teach letters and numbers but the kiddo will have problems adapting to a community setting in kindergarten.

Everybody falls for “pull my finger” once, too. I was reminded of Hammie when I first did this to my son. He immediately reached for my finger and demanded “again!” and I said “no, it has to recharge” and then he started pulling is own finger to see if it would work.

Never dis your foot massager!

It’ll be a proud, proud day.

No Darryl, just no.

Armpit Arpeggios for the advanced student.

sure wish I coulda gone to a learning center… I never was able to get those armpit noises down….

Not everybody can do it.

Those who can’t are jealous.

As cute and as cuddly as those sounds may be and even if they were to benefit her in later years, she still needs to develop social skills outside the family environment…..
