The Adventures of Nancy – I am a lap dog
Hi there again.
This is Nancy back again. Grandpa Trevor has gone on a long holiday interstate and so I have to hold the fort here on his blog. He has gone with Grandma Corinne to visit Uncle Simon and Aunty Leanne in Sydney.
I wish they had taken me with them. I would have been really well behaved. I would sit quietly and watch all the sheep and cattle in the paddocks as we went along. I would sit quietly when I saw a kangaroo hopping over the road. I wouldn’t even bark if I saw an echidna or a wombat.
I would have a very responsible job while taking them on holidays. They have a habit of wandering off into the bush and leaving the car unattended. Grandma Corinne is always looking at the ground, seeking out a new wildflower to photograph. And Grandpa Trevor always had his head in the air looking at birds though his binoculars or his camera. I would stay and guard the car.
Perhaps they will take me with next time.
In the meantime I thought I’d show you a picture of me as a lap dog. It shows Grandpa too. He will be furious when he gets back to see that I used this photo of me on his lap.
Never mind; I’ll just cuddle up on his lap again and he will forget all about it.
Talk to you soon.
Nancy
Hi Nancy,
Maybe Grandma and Grandpa didn’t take you with them because they know how hard you’ve been working lately.
I know they are probably not having as good a time without you, you probably make everything better.
Yes, you are probably right. Besides, I have to also look after my Mum. She works so hard at school being a great teacher. Her students really need her as their final exams come up n November. That reminds me – I must write a post about my Mum.
