My dog and I have a conflict of interests.

 

A beautiful quality of cats is they are always willing to play.

 

Do your part and adopt a kitty!

 

Benny at Disneyland

 "Ben, look over here!"

"But the parade is starting."

"That's not a parade Benny just a line of people waiting to buy a churro."

"That's one parade we need to be part of."

MOM, we don't need to throw the pen away. It still works!

 

The Pencil Sharpener

 I had the perfect pencil

It was not a snack you see

Yet it rolled onto the floor

Into the mouth of Kathy Dee.

The biggest wish

"I have a wish. A very heavy wish. So I thought a dollar would help bribe the wishing well to make it come true. Fingers and paws crossed!"

Listen

 When I walk home from where ever, I go through the orchards. Nature speaks to me. Actually, nature speaks to everyone. The problem is many people fancy themselves too important to listen.

No hands

I think this will work!

Look, I have got it!

Nope, not yet!

 OK kids, do not try this at home, at the beach, at the park or anywhere else. I am a partially trained pro. I will upload a "How to video" and a "How not video." Happy Saturday!

Let's Swim

"Can Mr. Duck join you?"

"Sure!"

 "Now make room for me!"

Winner takes all

Remember, there are no ropies! YEP!

 

You didn't say no feeties!

Next time remind me to say no feeties too.

 

You get his left

And I'll take his right

And just so you know

Ladies get the first bite.

 

Oh that is so sweet

You are so very nice

But how can I bite

When he has such sweet eyes?

 

He was born to be sweet

To be on this plate

Now hurry and dig in

Before it's too late.

 

His days are numbered

His aging has begun

And who wants to eat

A stale cinnamon bun?

Deals

 

"If you do the dishes, I will take you to the park tomorrow." 

"Will you let me out of the wagon this time?"

"Fine, but you have to watch where you are walking. You stepped in dog poop before."

"Elephant poop is worse."

"True. I'll just stop feeding you."

"I don't poop. I am a stuffed animal."

"And yet your voice seems so real."

"Never underestimate a child's imagination."

"Is that you or me saying that?"

"We may never know!"

A weed

 I suppose it is a weed. Oh, but how lucky it is to grow sturdily and beautifully. I want to be a weed when I grow up.

Best Friends

 

Thirsty?

 

The Blink

 Mom, make sure you get me in the picture. Am I in it? Now be sure the flowers are looking. The one in the middle blinks a lot so be sure to take a couple photos. OK, how do they look. Did you get a good one? Well, take 7 more just in case. Mom, you need to tell us when to be ready. I was in the middle of talking. Ok, ready now! She blinked again, didn't she?

Best Gift of All

 

Of all of my presents,
The best gift of all,
Are the Earth's gift of creatures,
The large and the small.

Ugly Sweaters

 And the judges did judge with the utmost of care, 

to decide who is dressed in the ugliest of ware!
