Be Mine

Dear Alpha Mommy,
Mia says this box is full of treats!
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
It is, honey, but I’m sorry, it’s not for you.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
It’s for Mia?
XOXO
Poppy
Dear Poppy,
No, not for either of you. It’s chocolate, and that would make you both very sick. It’s for Alpha Dad.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
You are giving him something to make him sick??????????
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
Of course not. It doesn’t make humans sick. For us it’s a special treat.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
I didn’t know you gave Alpha Dad special treats!!
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
Of course I do. Especially at Valentines. That’s a time to show people that they are special.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
What are you going to give Mia? Temptations?
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
Good call! And I’ll have to think of something for Puffin.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
Small birds.
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
No honey. I’ll give him extra kibble. That’s what he wants more than anything in the world.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
What are you going to give the chickens?
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
That’s easy. Crickets. And if I can’t find crickets I’ll give them freeze-dried mealworms. The poultry pinnacle of gourmet dining.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
But what about me?
XOXO Poppy
Dearest Poppy,
You are such a good dog that I’ll give you a hug, and a spoon full of peanut butter!
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
Another pinnacle!
XOXO Poppy
