A huge cuddle and snuggle and I-hope-I-don’t-accidentally-bite-your-head-off-thank-you to Eve and Dexter and their human at Hamster Diaries for choosing us as June’s Best Blog. Although I am still a little afraid of my mechanical hamster, Eve and Dexter don’t seem as scary as that baby Frankenstein monster in its evil, unpredictable plastic ball.
Mom also won two awards from our friend Beth at By Word of Beth. These awards are for being a 12×12 writer, which Mom is. To me it means Beth likes me. She really really likes me.
These awards require us to:
- Link back to the person who gave us the awards – Thanks, Beth!
- And tell 7 things about ourselves
You can read 7 things about me here or here or see 7 of my favorite toys here….
Having 3 new awards is helpful, since yesterday Mom found out she didn’t win the Highlights Annual Fiction Contest. She said, “This story is SO cute, how did it not win?” and “Oh well. I’ll enter a new story next year.” and “Being a dog is so simple….”

Thanks, Beth. Mom is already wondering where to send that cute story next.
Love and licks,

Congratulations on yet another award. You need to let these publishers know you got all these things. You don’t get them for nothing, you know.
Thanks, Gemma. Maybe I should be writing the books and Mom should be jumping through the hula hoop!

Have I told you you’re the funniest dog I know? And I have two pretty funny dogs!
Congratulations!

Congrats on the wonderful awards and commiserations on missing out on the Highlights Annual Fiction Contest.
Thanks, Bassa. Mom still likes her rejected story. I bet it’ll be back in the mailbox this week.

YAY!!! Glad you won three awards Cupcake! You deserve them! YAY!!! We tell mom to hang in there….. she is a great writer.. it is a matter of time. 🙂
Thanks, Chuck and Collies! I keep encouraging Mom to work hard… even though I know she’ll soon need a break, and then it’ll be time for me to learn tricks. Ugh.
Love and licks,
C
Congrats on the awards. Be sure to give your Mummy lots of licks to make her feel better about her competition. Maybe you can share your awards with her?!
