If I Were Your Brother, Boy Would You Be In Trouble

I asked where is my bag of candy? With a sheepish face you said, the dog ate it. What dog? We do not have a dog. Oh! Spot my furry and hungry little stuffed dog. If I were your brother, boy would you be in trouble. How can I get upset with a story like Spot? I hope Spot did not get sick eating all of my candy. With that, one very sick little boy ran for the bathroom. Guess Spot ate way too much of my candy. I never had to tell Mom and Dad. Funny, I never lost my bag of candy again.

- If he was your brother ... he not only stole your candies ...he also would have made the dog very sick ... candy is dangerous for dogs, glad this dog was not real, Paula :) - He got a lesson :))) - Good luck in the contest ... a lovely poem :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Too cute Paula. Reminds me of the time I made a cake to take to work. It was Easter and I decided to go to the store for decorations. When I got back the dog had eaten half of it. AND HE NEVER GOT SICK!! Great story. God Bless, JB
