Dear Terry, Today is Mom's Birthday! As soon as she woke up, I ran and got Dad and we sang her Happy Birthday! Even Petey helped with that! Mom went to work though and we were all sad. Then Pappy came over and helped Dad out and then they went away to do something together. Dad bought Mom a gift. Her favorite Easter Egg from the Candy Store! Then Mom surprised all of us and she came home early!!! OHHHH it was big excitement. I was barking, Penny ran, Petey came running to see if I was right about Mom being home. And I was! Mom came home early! I was so excited! Dad was excited too! Mom hardly ever comes home early! I told Mom let's go for a birthday walk! At first she didn't understand so I kept barking and then I kept going over to my leash. And then we went for a walk in the park!! We had lots of fun. Mom let me pick the trail to go on and we went into the woods to smell smells and watch squirrels. I started to get tired so I took Mom back to the car. I can't always walk as far as I used to because I get tired. Mom says that doesn't matter. We have fun no matter what. Mom says I feel my age some days. My birthday is coming up. Mom says so. I'm going to be 9 or 10.  Mom says I get a birthday surprise on my birthday. I hope it's a biscuit with sprinkles on top and frosting.

Hope you had a good spring day!

Barks and Wags, FredDog!
