Uggo

Anna has been mulling over the idea of getting a puppy to try to keep G company during the day.  Grandma has been very opinionated in saying she doesn't want a puppy.  Anna teases her every now and then, "Well, when we get the puppy you are going to love it so much."

"No!  No dogs!"

Anna and I were picking something up for G when we saw a vending machine that said, "Adopt a Puppy!"  We bought a little rubber puppy for $0.75 and got to the car and told G we saw a puppy adoption sign in the store and bought a puppy.

"No, no dogs!  No puppies!"

Anna showed her the little puppy, "But Grandma, I love him.  His name is Uggo.  Can we please keep him?"

"No, he's ugly.  No dogs!"

Anna and G have been teasing each other about Uggo and now I think Uggo is Grandma's favorite thing in the house.  Anna told G to say goodbye to Uggo the other day.

"Ok, Ooogo, goodbye!"

"It's Uggo, Grandma."

She patted the dog on the head three times and kissed it, "Uggo, Uggo, Uggo."

When my niece came over, Grandma was very clear she could not take Uggo home.
