Since you are new, there are some things you should know about being a toy: I was told we were made for kids, but adults are really great companions. They play with you much nicer, but sadly, not as often and in secret. Adults really need us the most. They are busy with jobs that make them closed and pursed face. Their jobs often take too much from them and that's when we come in. We soften them up, make them mushy inside. This is when we must put on the charm. Charm is a magical energy that locates happiness that has gone lost, gone missing, or was left wilting in dark corners. There is nothing like seeing an adult lighten, to smile with their entire face. This ability of ours is like a superpower, so use it sparingly and carefully. We wouldn't want the other adults to see and make fun of them, because this could cause them to put us away for longer or forever. |

"Am I the only dog owner out there with dogs that love to go far into other people's lawns to use the bathroom? They always do it when my guard is down, while I am busy watching a butterfly flutter by or while I am waving at a cute kid as he rides his tricycle." |

"Can I pet your pony?" "Are your hands clean?" "Um, yah!" "Nope, you paused. We can't risk it, plus, even if you did wash your hands I am not sure you did it thorough enough!" "Why would you say that?" "Well for one, I am not sure your boots are on the right feet, and yesterday, I saw you petting a snail." "Fine, well you can't pet my snail." "Hmmm, alright....just make sure you pet Pony with your cleanest hand and then take me to your snail." |

"There he is! His name is Manny because he is a man snail. Now, are your hands clean, because we don't want Manny catching any cookies from your pony?" "Cookies? How does one catch cookies from a Pony....she's not a chef, she's a horse. You mean 'kooties'." "Ooohhh, that explains a lot. I was wondering why so many people were afraid of cookies!" |
