Let’s start off again with being thankful for Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the picture every week!
Chia: I get to do the poem this week ’cause, well, I’ll get to that later. Right now, here’s my poem. You’ll soon see why I’m not in the picture!
What’s Wrong? by Chia
Darling, this is our anniversary!
Why won’t you smile or even look at me?
Please tell me what’s wrong and I’ll make it right.
I love you so much, I don’t want to fight.
It’s my Jacksund, Chia, my precious girl.
Leaving her alone makes my stomach churl.
Let’s go to the park where she can come too.
Then I’ll take you home and make love to you!
Lucy: Chia, this poem is scandalous!
Chia: What?! They’re gonna go home after we have fun in the park and then we can all cuddle together in bed. Right?
Anyhoo, Mom let me have the picture poem this week because Lucy got to go to the nursing home to see our grandma last Friday when we were in In Dee Anna, and I had to stay at the rental house with Xena. And it gets worse! On Saturday, Lucy and Xena both went to Dad’s sister’s hobby farm to celebrate grandma’s birthday with all their relatives, and I. Had. To. Stay. At. The. Rental. House. By. Myself.
So, I said, “Mom, don’t you think I should at least get to write the poem this week, and write whatever I want?” And she said, “Yes!” which meant that Xeboo couldn’t say “no.” So there, little Miss I got to go to the party and you didn’t! *big wags*
Xena: You woulda got loose and run off! We were all just looking out for you, cause we love you. Oh, and don’t call me Xeboo.
Lucy: And I’m thankful that you didn’t go and and maybe get lost and die in the the vast wilderness of Amish Country, In Dee Anna.
Chia: Umm, oh, yep, there is that. Well, I still hope everyone likes my poem.
The Mom: I’m thankful for a safe trip to Fort Wayne, IN and back. It’s about a nine hour drive each way. I’m also thankful that we don’t have to do that drive again until late November when we’ll be going for the Thanksgiving/Christmas get-together.
I’m also thankful for all three of my sweet pups. And yes, Chia’s safety is the only reason she didn’t get to come to the farm get-together. She’s still a “runner” and we love her too much to lose her like that (or at all!).
Wishing everyone a good Thursday and weekend, which is only one more day away!

Aww, Chia…your parents love you so much-they just didn’t want to lose you. Consider it a kind and loving gesture on their part. But now you’re all reunited and that feels soooo good.

Well, the poem was great, and the reason(s) you had to stay put were quite valid…
We ‘suffer’ that way too…because Benji can be too friendly and jumpy to greet, and Dalton is unpredictable with strangers…due to his sad abusive past..sigh…
But…we might get to go to a tailgate pawrty at our local pet shop! Which means TREATS!

It’s not scandalous if you’re married, right? The poem is funny, and so is the conversation after. Yes, you deserved to write this poem.

Chia I think you did a wonderful job on the poem and while I know you wished you could have gone on the road trip BUT think just how awful it would have been if you’d wandered off and got lost and all that other stuff everyone said COULD have happened to you. See? you got to write that PAWSOME poem too – I’d say you are one lucky kid!
Huggie, Teddy

That’s a great poem, Chia. I agree, it’s no fun being the only one left at home (or a temporary home).
