THILLY and THANKFUL THURSDAY

I spotted the crumb-catcher-rug-pup wearing a new hat the other day.  I think the ZH bought it
at that all-purpose-place called WalMart while grocery shopping. 
You know it's very difficult for her to go grocery shopping
at that store and not come home with an assortment of other things that
don't qualify as groceries.  Anyway: you know I like hats myself, and so when the
rug-pup went to nap, I borrowed it... I think it will be particularly useful when Maggy gets
too close to me... I think she'll be scared off by it...  if she is, I say "good".
Also this week, the ZH received a wonderful package from furriends Hannah and Lucy.
Some great storybooks to read to the grandbeans.  I, too, like to read, and I'm getting better
at it all the time.  Once upon a time I could only read picture books. 
Then I moved up to books with some words on the pages. 
Now, as one of the ZH's grand-nieces said, "I can read chapter books!"
How cool is that!
After looking over all the books, I chose first to read "It's A Dog's Life" as I think since
all the other family humans have dogs at their houses, it's important for me to learn more
about them.  Maybe it'll help me learn more about the little rug-pup that comes here, too!
Next I chose to read "The Tiger Who Came To Tea".
However, I freely admit that reading can make me a bit snoozy, so I stopped
for just a little while to nap...
Thank you Hannah, Than you Lucy... and Thank you to their Mom!
