Do you know what they did yesterday?
They took away my green, fuzzy tree! I liked my tree. It was really nice. It had lots of ringing bells and shiny balls all over it. I played with the balls; I rang the bells. Everyone laughed when I played with the toys on my tree. They made it go away. I can’t believe they did that to me.
They took all the balls and bells and put them in one of those boxes that Gus likes. The box made nice noises, sounded very interesting, but I could not get into it and then they hid the box in the basement. They took the tree down and broke it into pieces. They stuffed the pieces into a really big box. I tried to stop them, but they did it anyway and now it’s gone.
They vacuumed the room; made lots of noise. Then they put a boring chair in the place where my fun tree stood. I can’t believe it. It’s gone. I must have been bad.
I am sad.

I think she might like me. But my favorite boxes are the ones that they’re using. Those are really awesome. I really like it when Daddy and Mommy play games, because I can take over their box and then they can’t put anything away and have to stay up with me allllllll night! It’s pretty exciting. 
And I discovered that shoe boxes are almost as much fun as toilet paper! I can shred them too. Mommy doesn’t like it when I shred boxes or toilet paper though. I don’t understand it. I think it’s fun! She’s worried about me getting something called a “blockage” again. I don’t remember it, but she says it’s from when I ate styrofoam when I was little. She says I didn’t like it. Well, that’s all for today. I have to go help Mommy do the laundry. I’m a good helper!
It was in October of 2007 that I was found, I was only about 4 months old. I was left out in the cold in South Bend, Indiana. I was being beaten by sticks, and having rocks thrown at me by mean children. I was also being attacked by dogs (and still cannot hear a dog bark without being scared to death). A very nice couple named Jeremy and Miriam took me in. They tried very hard to find my family, but no one seemed to want me. Then one day, we went on a very, very, very long drive. All the way to Colorado. There, I met my new family, who happened to be Jeremy’s little sister, and her husband. (I like them, they’re my favorite) I was very scared for the first few days, but then I saw my new home, where I had my OWN room, many toys, and plenty of food to fill my little belly. They even let me snuggle with them on the bed!!!
