Star

Go ahead and be a star, honey.  Don't hold back or feel held back on my account.  I want you to shine, because I love you.  Just don't jump up onto my counter top and try to eat my lunch while I'm still cooking it.  Then hiss at me when I push you away.

Aw Natty, you are such a beautiful girl.  You may feel lonely with all this waiting around, but please know that I am always with you and am thinking about you and wondering what you are doing and how you are feeling.

Hi Pina!  Still in Amsterdam?  Eat a herring for me!  Oh, don't say you are sick of raw herring.  How can you get tired of raw herring?  It's yummy!
