Dear Terry, This is Mom's Favorite Holiday. It's not mine. I've been so scared the past few days. Everyone around us is setting off fireworks. Mom stays with me. We sit together on the couch or in the bed and my ears are covered. Petey runs from window to window when he hears the fizzy crackly ones. He likes to watch those. Oh and Dad bought a bean bag game! Only Petey tried to take one of the bean bags. Dad said that's why we shouldn't be playing in the house! Mom took a picture. There's proof. Petey takes things. Sometimes little things, sometimes big things. We might have to play bean bag inside if it rains. Mom said it was supposed to rain. OH! Last night Mom ran and got us ice cream! I even got a special cup of dog ice cream all for me! I didn't even share it with Petey. I love ice cream. Mom said it might help me not be so scared of the fireworks. And she was right! I heard a couple while I was licking my ice cream but it's ICE CREAM! I can't let that go to waste by being scared!! I told Petey he should start writing more. What if something happens and I can't write letters to you anymore? Then Petey can. He's in my tunnel right now. I made mom put his picture in the letter here at the bottom so you can see how he steals things.

Happy 4th Of July Terry! I hope you get some ice cream!

Love and Woofs Fred Dog.

I almost got a bean bag for myself!
