Thursday – A Little Personal – Twiggy Needs a Playmate

Lucy and Twiggy

“Why the long face, Lucy?”

“Twiggy is licking me.”

“Twiggy. You know Lucy doesn’t like that.”

“She won’t play with me.”

“Maybe she just wants to rest for a while. Come get a toy.”

“She would like to rest all day. Okay, I’m coming.”

“I have fish. Could you tell her to play with fish and me?”

“You can play by yourself. Lucy has a right to do what she wants.”

“The puma has fished the stream and comes up with dinner.”

“Little One. Cats like a puma wouldn’t fish in a stream.,”

“So, you want to show me what pumas would do?”

“Gadzooks. I didn’t mean to get pulled in.”

“But you are in now.”

“Okay, then. The mama bear is going to show the cub how to fish.”

“Yahoo Mama. We are going fishing. I just love fish.”

“Easy Little One. We have to be quiet, or we’ll scare the fish.”

“Come on, Mama. Let’s go get em.”

“Follow me, Little one.”

Lucy and Twiggy

“Look, Mama. I’ve caught a big fish.”

“Well done, Little One. Now Mama is going to take a nap. Fishing wears me out.”

    1. Thanks, Liz. For whatever reason, Twiggy has been a bundle of energy for the last two days. She normally knocks off for the day about 8:00 pm. Lately she has been playing right up to a major collapse at bedtime.

  1. Ha-ha-ha! Twiggy reminds me of a politician convincing his electorate that if they fish together, their life will change to the better. While Lucy is mature & wise, so she is our of this political vanity fair as she knows that the electorate will win nothing.

  2. Just think of the number of families around the country whose kids are acting like Twiggy, while their long-suffering, Lucy-like parents try to figure out where to find an equivalent ‘fish’ to amuse them!

      1. Aww, hard to resist, my friend. This house is so empty … and quiet … without Dallas. It’s been a month today now — I’m crying less but missing him just as much.

  3. Twiggy looks like she’s smiling when she has “Mama” Lucy in the neck hold, I mean hug!
    Lucy’s patience is wonderful. Love that she can just hop on the couch as a way to say, enough…

  4. Ha, ha. I get the feeling Twiggy would wear anyone out, but I gues the difference in age doesn’t help. She certainly keeps Lucy on her toes. 😉
