My Family

Everyone has a family of humans.  Mom, Dad, sister, brother.  That's what everyone has.  But sometimes you can add to your family by picking out an animal.  I have 2 dogs and a cat and two gerbils.  This is the story of my family. 

Before I was born Mom and Dad went and got Reno! (He's the cat)  His mom was my Grandma's cat.  They bought Reno.  When they moved to Michigan they got Coda.   Then Gus.  He was a tiny puppy when we got him.  Now he's huge!  Then they had me.  When I was two, my Uncle John came and said he wanted another dob.   He took Gus.  Four or five years later, Uncle John came back with Gus.  He gave him to us.  A couple months later a friend of ours wanted a black lab for his birthday.  So we gave him Gus.  Coda and Reno had the house to themselves.


Coda Girl

You see, Gus is very protective so if friends were around, he could bight them.  So they gave him back.  So Gus is with us!

I love to just lay down next to all of them and cuddle.  I play cat atack with Reno.  Hold his paw as long as you can before he bights you!  I just love our whole family!

The End

P.S.  Gus thinks he's a singer!  He howls every time my dad plays his horn!

  2. My sweet Jackie Sue, It is so good to be able to read your stories. And I am glad that you know that Reno is a boy and Coda is a girl. Do I have that right or is it backwards? You know how I am. I miss you. I love you - you know how much. Keep writing. Love, Grandma
