*wags, wags, wags, wags* Hi, it's me, Chia, the birthday girl! In case you haven't heard, I'm turning four years old today, and the whole country is celebrating! I've decided to give the first picture poem of my birthday month to Angel Lexi. Hey, maybe I am growing up!
I've heard she used to help our folks teach ballroom dance, so I knew she would be the expert on this. She sent me this poem to share with y'all today.
First, thanks to Angel Brian for hosting Thankful Thursday as well as Angel Sammy for the fun pictures every week.
You're Doing It Wrong by Angel Lexi
Please try to keep on beat
Stop looking at your feet!
Hold paws and move closer
And please don't call me "sir."
If you want to rumba
Stop dancing the samba.
You flew me to the North Pole
Cause your dance ain't got no soul.
Don't give up though it seems hopeless.
You two just have to focus.
This lesson's going on your card
So you two just keep trying hard.
Chia: Do you see the credit card by Angel Lexi's paw? Wow, she thought of everything. I knew she was the right one to do the poem for this picture! When she helped teach ballroom dance she always watched the teens practice and barked at them when they were doing it wrong. Then Mom or Dad had to go over and say, "Show me," to the couple Lexi had singled out. And, sure enough, they were always doing it wrong. Maybe someday I can do that, too.
Riley: Dream on, hot dog. Me and Lexi, we didn't always like each other, but she knew what she was doing and was always good at it. There'll never be another like her. But I have to say, it was mighty nice of you to give her your special day poem. Maybe you really are growing up, Chia.
Chia: *wags* Thanks, RiBoy. *wags* Hey, everyone, I'll be back tomorrow to share how my special birthday went today, with all my presents and great food. *paws crossed* In the meantime, I'm also letting Lucy do our Independence Day wishes. (I should get extra treats for this!)
I do want to do the thankfuls today. I'm thankful brother Andrew rescued me(when my name was Chico) and brought me here from a bad situation. Then when my previous dad got outa jail and wanted me, Andrew just said I had gone to live with someone else and they won't give me back (all true). My life here is so, so good!! I love my sister Lucy the most, and I'm so thankful she has put up with me for over three years. And I love my Mom and Dad and cuddling between them in the big bed at night. And I'm thankful for my sister Xena, too. We're the same size and have fun playing together. I'm thankful for my yummy food and I'm thankful that Mom's giving me a chance at Freestyle! Wow, I've got a lot to be thankful for, don't I?! *whole body wags*
Happy Fourth of July!!!
Chia
