Happy Earth Day Everyone!

It's Post Time

Hi everyone!  It's a beautiful day today, and it is Earth Day.  I am going to go for a long walk with my Papa and Daddy and brother.  When I am walking, I am going to pick up any trash that I see.  Well, I really am going to look at the trash and then stare at Papa.  He will pick it up for me, because he loves me.  I hope that you have a really great Earth Day and that you can do something good for our Earth.  It is the only one we have.

Silence is Golden on April 15th

It's Post Time

Papa told me that tomorrow, April 15th, is a day to be silent to support young children who are bullied. Tommorrow is the National Day of Silence. Each year, this national event event brings attention to the suffering in silence that GLBTQ youth have to endure each and every day. GLBTQ youth are most commonly the targets of systematic mental and physical bullying and abuse from peers and our communities at large. The bullying has to stop. The hatred and fear being spread by those without empathy or acceptance has to stop.

I promise to be silent all day tomorrow to support this day and the children who suffer at the hands of bullies.  I have seen bullies when I was racing.  I understand what it's like.  I will be silent for you tomorrow.

Can I count on you to be silent tomorrow as well?  What can we all do to end the silence?

April Pictures for 5 on the Fifth

It's Post Time

Hi everyone.  I was able to get Papa to help me take some pictures this time, so I am going to show you the pictures that I took that have to do with "Blur."  I took all these pictures by holding the camera really really close to the thing I was taking the picture of so that it was blurry.

This is looking at the stained glass in the window.

This picture is looking outside through the stained glass window and the screen door in the front hallway.

This is a close up of one of Daddy's paintings that is all glittery and shiny in the sun.

This is a picture of some holiday ornaments that are in a plastic box.

This is a close up of my favorite rope toy.  This is a pretty new one.  It isn't all stringy yet.  But it will be sometime.  I liked this toy, so I took a picture of it for you.

 

Thanks for looking at my pictures this month.  I appreciate your visiting my blog.

Keep your tail up and wagging!
