“MY very FIRST pet…”
My very first puppy…a FRENCH Poodle …and we named her…”Charlie Brown” – – just a big bundle of LOVE!
My Father has a friend that does all the work of making a little poodle …look beautiful…and the best part of the “Groomer” coming to our house to do the trimming and cutting of the toe nails… “I get to see how it is all done!”
We set up a card table … with newspaper on top…to catch the toe nails and hair…and hopefully keep “Charlie Brown” from making scratches on the top of the card table – as we do use the card table for all of our games…that my friends and I play.
While…Charlie Brown was standing so nice…for all the cutting of her curly hair …and then she would stand so carefully… while each toe-nail was cut…and she did not cry …she did not put up a fuss…just would stand so calmly and quiet…as if she knew all about what was going to be going on…next. We should give credit to the “Groomer” – as he had a special way of talking to my puppy… it was as if they were the best of FRIENDS…and spoke a language …all their own.

“Getting ready for my …BIRTHDAY!”
Since it will soon be my BIRTHDAY… just thought that I would let everyone know…that some of my “scary friends” – – would like to make FRIENDS… with some of the newer American wild and silly new creatures…created just for little boys like me…to make up stories of all the new and old “WORLDS” to be explored …by me and my FRIENDS…especially when they come over to play with me!
My “BIRTHDAY” Invitations have been sent out…so if you did not receive your invitation…be sure to call my MOM and see if you are on her invited list… and …be sure to tell her… that you want to come to my “PARTY” – – – and that you always have so much FUN…when you are over here…continue to lay it on thick – – that you just love BIRTHDAY CAKE and ICE CREAM!
Just so you know… that I am on my best of behavior… as I know that at least ten (10) of my FRIENDS will be coming over for my BIRTHDAY… and also that if there are a few that she forgot about – – – my MOM said she will let them also come and have FUN! My MOM has lots of games and plenty of prizes for everyone to receive something…she does not like for any of my FRIENDS to go home without a special gift, too!
We are decorating the house…NOW – – we are hanging all kinds of surprises and making some special things – – that are to be used for the games – – some games inside and some outside… as this is FLORIDA… and we have the best weather at this time of year…just for BIRTHDAYS!
“You are all invited…just tell my MOM…when you show up at the door…LEE said for me to come to the “BIRTHDAY PARTY!”
