Beating Up The House

 Cassandra was given a ball by Uncle Doug.  That in itself is not much of a surprise but what was interesting is that the ball lights up whenever it is hit hard enough.  Cassandra enjoyed the flashing effect but was not happy when the flashing stopped after a few minutes.  She would go over to the casement (doorway) and hit it until the flashing would start again. She did this repeatedly, happy when the lights were flashing and on a mission when they weren't.

    

After the novelty of flashing lights wore off (took about 30 minutes), Cassandra returned to her roots.  She began working on puzzles.  There must be a gene for this because Mommy, both grandmas, and more than one aunt really like puzzles.
