Grumpy Gnome Invites Himself

Mother Bunny had her hands full with six. They were bouncing around, adding friends to their mix. I want them to be social, she said to a friend. But How many children must I feed in the end? I know you can handle it, her friend said, you are the best. Maybe this beach vacation is a bit of a test. If it is too much, next year you could stay at home. This might please your neighbor, Mr. G.T. Gnome. Mother Bully laughed, for G.T. was a good friend. But he always invited himself along in the end. She almost felt guilty for leaving him back home. But she had her hands full enough without a grouchy gnome.

I'd say so. (chuckling) Who wants to go on vacation with a grouchy gnome? Certainly not me! I'm off to Puerta Vallarta for a week on the 13th. Not taking any gnomes with me!
