this afternoon i ran over and gave my mom the biggest hug ever. she bought me something really cool and i love it. mom and i went out to the park this afternoon. we took my football and i kicked it around for a bit. i ran around and enjoyed the sunshine. mom made me. when we got to the park all i wanted to do was sit on a bench. i found an empty bench and climbed up on it. i could have spent the rest of the day just sitting there kicking my heals. mom dragged me off though and said, we came to the park to play blah blah blah. some old lady stole the bench before i could climb back on it. i didn't want to share so i followed mom. like i said- i ran around and kicked my ball. it was ok. i saw a kittie walking at the other end of the grass so i picked up ball and ran after him. mom followed behind me. she was all like- kitties really don't like to kick balls. yeah whatever. i followed kittie. i tried to get him to play but he was busy trying to steal lunches off other people in the park. mom and i went to visit the flowers instead. there are loads of flowers out now. they have all come back from their winter vacation.
mom said that since we were near boots, we should go pick up a few things. i walked down to the store. mom let me hold the basket while we walked around looking for things to put in it. mom said i was a great helper but when i started taking heavy things out to make the basket lighter, she said she should take over. i just sat in buggy.
after boots mom said- lets go see if there is anything good at the charity shops. we went in a few and didn't really find anything great. mom bought me a stuffed fish of some sorts. mom says her closest guess is- sword fish but it really looks like a sturgeon. we went into the help the old people shop and there it was: a bag. not just any bag, the bag i've been wanting for ages. a little trolley bag of my own, one with a pully handle and rolly wheels. mom cringed but she pulled it off the shelf and gave it to me anyway. it was love at first sight. i love my trolley bag, love it, love it, love it. and i love my mom for buying me the trolley bag.
mom and i got home and i spent the rest of the day playing with my trolley bag. i put toucan and blankie in the bag and dragged them all over the house. i tested the handle and the wheels to make sure they worked and didn't need any adjustments.
i did take a short break from playing with my bag to try out something else that mom bought me yesterday- crayons. first things i did with my crayons: i tried to taste one and i tried to stick one up my nose. mom just shook her head. i colored for a few minutes but i really just wanted to play with my trolley bag.
when dad got home i ran out into the hallway with my new bag to show him right away. he wasn't too impressed and gave mom the evil eye. mom told him to stuff it, hardwick likes the bag and that is that.
now that dad is home i'm going to get ready for bed and watch scrubs with him for a bit.
