I had not heard of a "Diamante" before...I am now the more wiser for having read your clever little poem ; a lovely sounding word...I thought it might well be a reference to a Greek Goddess such is its loveliness. Nicely done, Brenda. Lots of affection of course. :) john

Ah, so beautifully done, my dear twinster! You said it all in just a few precious and well-chosen words. Your mama bear heart shines with love, warmth, protection and appreciation for your babies (no matter how old they are..lol!). Lil puff puff is so lucky to have a grandma like you, my sweet sissy. Superb writing, Dragon Fire! Best wishes for a win and warmest wishes for you! Love and hugs.. ~the saner of us two (I think.. ha!) :))

Lol! Yes, a shape changer and a bbq, both great ideas, my dear twin! :)) As for the tree house renovation, all materials will be fire-proof (keeping puff puff in mind of course). After she set the Unicorns manes on fire, they refused to go to their wing unless I made it fire retardant and kept hoof-friendly fire extinguishers available.. we’ll talk about the new treehouse plans with bro bro this weekend ;) the sane one <3

Ahh my sane sissy! Yes I should be a shape shifter going from mama bear to dragon to heck the list goes on lol! I am glad you enjoyed sister dear! So when will we begin the construction of our new treehouse mansion? You know I must know as to keep puff puff away! Lmao! We need lots of fire proof material and we need a west wing an east wing and bro bro will he want a south or north wing! Lol probably the one that has the most sun light he is so bright lol! Thank you did stopping by! And barbecue this weekend? Puff puff will start the coals! ;) Your insane sissy!;)
