Yes
I
Sometimes RUN FAST! EVER SO FAST!
You have to be
FAST
A HAWK
That lives around here.
TLC Cai-Cai
This is my birth month.
Mom doesn’t know the exact day
And neither do I.
We just know that the vet said I was probably born
Around the first of the month of January,
Give or take.
So Mom always says HAPPY BIRTHDAY on the First Friday of the Month of January.
That works for me!
And for Mom.
So here I am TWO YEARS OLD
And King of the family!
(Don’t I look like a king? 😊 )
Beautiful, wonderful, Darling, Mom always says to me!
TLC Cai-Cai
It’s been super cold here.
Like almost Zero cold
We don’t like going outside.
But we do. (Business to take care of, you do understand)
Sometimes we go with Mom
Sometimes we run out the door with Dad
But
Mostly we stay inside by the fire
Just say’n.
Oh! Yes! It’s almost Christmas!
Merry Christmas from Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai
I’ve been here since June.
It’s taken me a while to understand what I am supposed to do
Before it was: be pregnant, then meet the boy, then be pregnant again.
Now THAT is finished and done with.
So—here is my New purpose in life—
Guard Mom and Dad and sometimes TLC Cai-Cai. (Just sometimes)
I follow Mom everywhere!
And I do mean EVERYWHERE!
I growl at the door when something or someone strange is there
I’ve learned to help put up the chickens — only when Mom tells me too
And I have enjoyed immensely going on walks with Mom.
I have grown to the place I can go outside by myself for a short while. Not long I get worried about Mom and the house, and my soft beds.
But Still.
I haven’t learned how to sit on a lap and relax yet, but I do like to ride on Mom’s lap in the truck and look outside.
Oh! Yes! And I love going in my little blue box for rides on the four-wheeler.
Mom says I am getting better and better about learning how to
Just be a dog!
YAY! ME!
Boo Berry Brown
You might think a cat’s purpose
Is to sit on your lap and purr.
Nope.
Not my purpose.
I only sit on Mom’s lap WHEN I WANT TOO
If she picks me up
I jump right back down.
Now if I JUMP up,
then YES,
I will sit there and let her pet me and I will purr.
For me
My Purpose
Is to protect the farm
And I take it very seriously
I travel here
And there
And all over.
After all—
The dog just stays in the house
Unless she is with Mom.
Just Say’n,
TLC Cai-Cai
Traalalalla—“Let’s go do the chickens with Mom, Boo Berry.”
“Okay, doaky.”
“Bye—I’ve got stuff to do.”
“Not me, I stick to Mom like glue.” Boo Berry Betty replied.
“Works for me.” TLC Cai-Cai hollered as he took off to do whatever it is he liked to do.
“Come on Boo Berry, we’ve got stuff to do. This is a big day.”
Mom scooped me up, put me in the pick-up with Dad and we headed down to —I don’t know where. I can’t see out, and I don’t like to look out.
Then we were there.
And so was a big truck and a HUGE truck Mom called a semi.
Oh!
My!
GOSH!
BIG ANIMALS!
Shudder and shake
“You stay in here, Girly Girl”, Mom said, as she gave me a kiss on the nose. “The cows have come!”
Wow! Those are HUGE ANIMALS!
HUGE!
It wasn’t long before we were heading back to the house.
There I met TLC — “HUGE ANIMALS HAVE ARRIVED ON THE FARM!” I barked at him.
“I know,” he replied. “Cows, they come this time every year. We have to be careful around them and not get kicked.”
“I don’t plan on ever being around them,” I expounded to TLC Cai-Cai. “Those feet are bigger than the both of us!”
“Yep, you are right. Hey, race ya to the house. Whoever gets there first gets to get in first!” TLC took off in a mad dash.
“You can’t beat me!” Boo Berry Betty ran equal to TLC Cai-Cai arriving at the back door at the same time.
“You silly little creatures,” Mom reached down and petted us. “You can’t go in until I open the door.”
As soon as the door was open, TLC ducked under and flew right into the kitchen—Boo Berry right behind him
“What would I do if I didn’t have you crazy cute animals to liven up the day?” Mom laughed as we all tumbled into the kitchen.
“Whew, Boo Berry…thankfully there are no cows in the house!”
“Yes! What a terrible thought that is. But we are safe in here.”
Boo Berry Betty
and TLC Cai-Cai
I was out and about just enjoying myself
Doing this and that
The dog, our dog—Boo Berry Betty—had come out
Then had gone back in.
I was getting a tad bored
So, I headed to the dirt pile
This is a big pile of dirt Dad keeps for
Repairing the roads, and ditch banks
And stuff like that
So anyway, Out I went
It was warm and sunny
I decided Mouse would taste good
Right about now.
When
SUDDENLY I SAW
DANGER
The only thing left for me to do
WAS
“COMPANY! I yelled, TLC COMPANY!”
“Who?” TLC Cai- Cai asked as he lazily walked toward me.
Black Beauty,
and Kia!”
“Oh, I like Black Beauty”
TLC Cai Cai exclaimed!
“I don’t think I like ANYONE!
If Mom stays,
I will be okay— I can handle the company.
OTHERWISE, I AM GOING TO
