Who is responsible for scrunching up the little Armenian rug every day? I’m sick and tired of tripping over this mess.

 

Dear Alpha Mommy,

I sat on a rug today. Was it me?

XOXOXO

Poppy

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

It’s the cats. It’s always the cats.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Cher Madame,

Moi je wrestle seulment avec les bathroom rugs. Je subdue them. Je humiliate les bathroom rugs, et dominate them with forceful kicking avec my powerful hind claws. Mais le rug Armenian? Non. Ce n’est pas moi.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Mommy,

Me! It’s me!!!

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

What on earth are you doing with the rug? I want it to stay straight and flat.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

It’s sculpture!

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

It’s a rug. Whatever gave you such an idea?

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

From my friend Sammy. He lives in Los Angeles where he makes rug sculptures in his apartment. LA has a very vibrant art scene. I want to make the San Francisco Bay Area art scene just as vibrant.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

I admire your ambition, sweetie. But your art installation is going to trip one of us.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

Only if you don’t pay attention. Art is all about paying attention.

Love, Mia
