BM 1 Dillon - The Tiny Version

Evelyn found one of her Papa's old CG hats in the house today. In the spirit of pretending to be someone else all day, she has taken on the persona of her Coastie Dad. She has been wearing that big, old, dirty hat for a few hours now and she is really fleshing out the "story". She works at Station New Hatteras, she has a Coast Guard cat named Billy Bones who drives the boats, she has a new office, she has a galley that offers about 75 flavors of Popsicles. At one point I forgot what I was doing and called her Evelyn when I offered her some Pumpkin candy, I was politely but kindly reminded that she was " BM 1 Dillon or Boat Call (another name for a BM 1 is Boats, she translates that to Boat Call) and that I should call her one of those names at the "station" or I would get into trouble, then she took the candy. I certainly hope that BM 1 Dillon wants to go to Target and the playground today....
