Tempi is a book lover, so Kaitlin and Torben try to keep them out of her reach. They don’t always succeed.
The following is one of their favorite photos, about a book Tempi did not love.
She was highly indignant and wrote about it in Bad Present (in 2016). She wrote
…what kind of a Grandmother would give a book like this to my parents?! And let my Mom read it (or try to) right in front of me?
Did she conveniently forget the damage she had done to Torben’s mother’s living room when they had visited earlier in the year?
Probably. At the end of the post she’s wondering if the book has some new ideas for her to try.
