Even though Zoie went home a coupla weeks ago, I still think about her once in a while. So I thought I would let her be the one who did today’s poem. I think she did a great job. Here’s the picture ( do you see she hopped into it?) and her poem.
For My Birthday by Zoie the Schnauzer
For my birthday I wanted crepes,
Not a troop of crazy apes!
Get me outa here tout suite
And take me to my Drew so sweet.
He’ll hold me and we’ll cuddle close;
He’ll treat me like his precious rose.
He’ll feed me and he’ll take me out.
I’m done with this whole walk-about!
Xena: Thank you, Zoie! What a great poem. A round of applause for Zoie, everyone. *Lucy and Chia* stomp their feet and woof*
Now, for our thankfuls. I am very thankful I got to go back to the church last week. I was getting so very bored at home. I’m also thankful that I’ll be going to North Carolina – depending on storm activity – the first weekend of November to do what’s called a “brace” with Chia. We get to dance to the same music at the same time with Mommy. I’m so much more experienced than her that she tests my patience sometimes and I start doing my fancy moves. Mommy said it’s only going to work if I encourage her, not try to outdo her. *sigh*
Chia: I’m thankful Mom thinks I’m good enough to dance with Xena. But sometimes I feel Mom and Xena’s frustration and I don’t want to do it anymore. Then Mom tries harder to be sweet and it helps. I just hope I can do good and not get too nervous at the trial in November.
Lucy: You both will do great! I’m very thankful we don’t live anywhere near the coast, and that our friends who do haven’t been hurt in the terrible storms!
We, that’s it for today, except to say thanks to Angel Brian who is hosting Thankful Thursday as well as Angel Sammy for the fun pictures every week.
