Whell, it is a fun and all so funny story, and here is what and how it happened.
Yeu see last week was my Gotcha Day and my the Aunt Karen [Fank Yeu, Aunt Karen!!!] gave teu me a swimming lesson at
Rummy's Beach Club what come complete wif a play date wif my Cousins the Rizzi and Zeke.
It just so happened that this fun day was booked fur last Sunday, and that meant that my The Mom [who had been furry ill fur many days] a rose from her deaf bed and drove me to my celebratory gifted swim lesson.
When the peul gate opened, I wass the furst one in the peul but then I realized I was getting wet and surely in big trouble so I turned back. Wif just a little coaching, encouragement and guidance from
Lisa wheu is Rummy's the Mom and all so owner of the Beach Club... I started having BIG FUN!!!

Please know that my the Mom was not harmed in the wet and wild celebration of my Furst Gotcha Day. All she did was stand a round in the warm waters, sing my praises and clap fur me when I did brave fings.
There wass toys ebbery single where! And me and the Zeke, we did go after them!

Ob course, my Cousins Rizzi and Zeke are Olympic swim affletes from way back. They lubbs berry muchly to swim, and they are good at it! Not just deu they swim, but they all so dive!

Rizzi is the best diver I haff ever seen. That boy launches faster than I can run a round the pool edge and come in from the beach end. And that iss
F A S T .
He is fear less, and I am watching. Sum day I might take a leap wif him but not Sun day. No. The beach edge of the peul worked just fine fur me!

Summa Yeu know that I deu naught hardly ebber get to play wif toys at home. Fur one fing, I am destruck tive. And fur a nother, we yeuse toys to create drive... so I only play wif toys when I play wif either my the Mom or my the Trainer.
And I learned to swim on a counta I habbs a drive to get the toys...

I close by sharing juss one little fing on my mind...
I sum times fink a bout what cood a happened to me if I habbs not strayed far and wide enough. I cood a juss been the boy in a back yard, digging in the dirt, eating out of a tin pan and all so the shrubs and getting scolded. I cood a been a boy in the rain and the storms and the horrible heat. I cood a been the boy wheu no body really wanted.
In stead... I am the boy wheu wass gibben swimming lessons and a fun play date fur my Gotcha Day, and I am lubbed so berry much in spite of and all so be cause of my berry 'bad' self! I am blessed!
