The fun started as soon as we left the airport. I don’t have to ride by myself in the backseat because Sassy sits with me. Mommy could take a few tips from Sassy…hint, hint! I went to lunch with Sassy and Aunt Shay while Mommy got her hair cut. Lunch probably would have been more fun if I hadn’t slept through the whole thing. The trip to Jackson would also have been more fun if I hadn’t slept most of the drive. Granted, the drive was pretty quick because Aunt Shay was driving. Maybe next time I should take a nap on the plane so I can enjoy the company when we arrive. By the way, I was so super good on the plane. I played with my toys and flirted with the two blond little girls across the aisle from me. I did try to pat the man next to me on the arm or leg a few times just to say “hi,” but I never cried.
I don’t know why Mommy said we were going “home.” Sassy’s house doesn’t look like mine. I kept staring around wide-eyed trying to figure out where I was. It didn’t take me long to decide it was a pretty good place to be. Sassy has great toys. She has a great big Lego table, books, trucks, and even a rocking horse! She also has a dog, but her dog doesn’t look or act like Nemo. Her dog is little. And fast. And loud. And he is always trying to lick my face. Sometimes, I think he is cute. Other times…not so cute.
And Sassy has Carly and Reed. I LOVE Carly and Reed. I try to get right in the middle of the action. Reed doesn’t have an indoor voice, but it doesn’t bother me at all when he yells. I just ignore him and keep playing. He and Carly are really fast. I have to work so hard to keep up with them. Once, at Mama Shoe and Poppie’s house, I followed Reed all the way from the living room through the kitchen past the dining room and into Papa Shoe’s den. I was worn out, but I found him!
Cake. Cake! CAKE! The. Best. Thing. Ever. We had a birthday party for me! And we had CAKE. Reed was very excited about the presents. I don’t really know what presents are, but I now know what CAKE is. I have to find a way to get more. CAKE! I tried to skip walking and start levitating just to get more CAKE! Birthdays are great because there is CAKE!
One night it got too late for us to go to the pool because Mommy makes me go to bed while it is still daylight. So, we played in the sprinklers. It startled me every time the water hit me, but I thought it was funny once it was over. We saw a big rainbow in the sprinkler, just like in the book Mommy reads me about Noah.
I loved spending time talking to Poppie, and I finally got to cuddle with Mama Shoe. Mama Shoe has had a hard year, and we haven’t gotten to play very much. We made up for it this trip, though!
