Pets


Taegan:  Mom, can I get a pet?

Mom:  What kind of pet?

Taegan:  A dog!

Mom:  Hhmmm.  How do you care for a pet dog?

Taeg:  Feed it dog food, make it a dog bed and take it for dog walks.

Mom:  What about the poop?

Taeg:  I don't want a dog. I want a cat!

Mom:  Cats poop too.

Taeg:  What pet doesn't poop or puke, because I am not cleaning that up.

Mom:  Hhhmm.  Anything that eats needs to poop.

Taeg:  I want a pet worm!

That girl! This convo sounds like a comic strip. We've been reading lots of Calvin and Hobbes around here lately, which may be why it sounds that way to me. Anyway, thanks for the laugh!

I think a pony would fit nicely in your backyard. And maybe pony poop would make good fertilizer for that yellow patch of grass. Everybody wins!

This is funny. I don't think that would even sway Sadie one bit. She still wants a dog really bad.

Somehow I thought of my own children when reading this... about maybe getting a worm instead because I'm sick of cleaning up puke and poop!

Worms poop too right? :)
