Permission Granted!
I gave her that hug I said I would, and told her it was from a "Lady Marine, who although she's never met you, loves you, yes she does". I don't know what Miss V thought of that, she was kinda busy looking at the animal border in her room. I'd just been sent to change a dirty diaper, but her mother was mistaken, it wasn't dirty or even wet, so I just put it back on and re-wrapped her in her blanket, and took her back to her mother for further feeding.
