Riley and Lucy: We’re both thankful that Xena didn’t run out onto the road and get hurt or worse.
Xena: I’m thankful I got to go to work with Mommy again.
Why these thankfuls? Keep reading for the story behind them.
Riley: Psst, Lucy. Watch this.
*Shouting* Hey, Xena, you gotta come out and see this! There’s a family of chipmunks running all around the mailbox.
Xena: Where? I don’t see any chippies.
Riley: Maybe you need glasses. Or maybe you’re just not close enough!
Lucy: *whispering* Riley, that was mean. She’s actually going to check it out.
Riley: Bwahahahahaha! She fell for it.

Wait, where’d she go?
Lucy: I think I saw her cutting across the yard, running toward the woods chasing something. It’s hard to tell on this hill.
Riley: Cr*p. Now we’re in trouble.
Lucy: Not as much as if she’d gone out on the road! Oh wait, she’s back.
Mommy sure was mad, but I don’t understand why she was mad at Riley and Lucy and not me. Oh well. Lucy got grounded so I got to come to work with Mommy! Maybe I should chase chippies into the woods more often…
Thanks to Brian for hosting Brian’s Thankful Thursday!
