I love children......and, of course, they love me....


Ya know what? I dont think there is anything better than a bunch of little kids whose purpose in life is to adore me. Now, while I know that I am adorable and it's hard to get enough of me, I also know that usually if someone comes over to the house that Fat Piggy (the pug) mostly gets the attention (something about his fat body wiggling and the snorting sounds he makes). Well, I can tell you that didnt happen the other day. It was a GREAT day......

Mom was busy picking up all of my toys all over the house and I was helping her (helping her....taking the toys back OUT from where she just put them......same thing) and the doorbell rang. I, of course, beat her to the door and promptly opened the screen door for my guests (just a side note to all of you large dogs.....if you run super fast at the screen door and then throw your full body on to the door it will pop open every time) and then my mom says "look who is here to see you Comet". WHAT? Not "look piggy, someone wants you to play"? THEY WERE ALL FOR ME???????? I look up through happy, tear filled eyes and to my amazement there are 5 kids standing at the door.......and then it started. They took their shoes off and all of a sudden there were 5 giggling kids running around the house playing with ME! I was pet so much that I think they wore the fur off of my nose. They brought me treats and shared their own treats with me (*side note from Mom..... by "share" Comet means that the kids left their treats somewhere below ceiling level and Comet found and ate them....the treats that is....not the kids*). The kids were at the house for about 3 hours and we mostly played outside. Mom kept Fat Piggy in the house so the kids were lucky enough to have only me with them the whole time. When it came time for them to leave I was sad but mom said they would be back again. I then left for a well deserved nap.......and to find more treats that I was sure were laying around the house.

So, is there anything better than a fun filled day of playing outside with 5 kids? I think not.

Signing off ..... Comet Out.
