Reason 458 To Not Have A Pet

I was telling my daughter that she and her brother have Monday off for Labor Day, and she asked, “Do you have Monday off?”

“Yes,” I replied.

Her eyes got a little bigger. “Does Daddy have Monday off, too?”

“Yes,” I replied again.

Her eyes got really big and then she turned to the cat and said, “Did you hear that Tenni? The WHOLE FAMILY has Monday off and we’re going to be together!” And then she started snuggling with the cat.

I think I’ve been replaced by the cat. Not a good thing…

Perhaps a family day is very much in order.

Have a blessed and happy long weekend, and may your kids love on you instead of your pet.
