Here is a transcript of a letter Aiden slipped under my bedroom door.
Dear Mom,
teacup yorkies are adorible. u cant be alirjick to them. they r small as a teacup. I know you hate the poo but we could get a dirt pile and put a fence around it. so it would go in the dirt pile and no were else. we would put a chelter/cenel out there if it rains. I will pay. I will take care of it.
PLEASEDear Aiden,
Teacup Yorkies are adorible, in their own little way. I suppose. But if anyone can be alirjick to them, it would be you. I'm sorry to point this out, Sweetie, but they are not really as small as a teacup. And if they were, I'm pretty sure that would creep me out. If you'll notice, that Yorkie is just spilling right over the top of that teacup. I think the description is false advertising, if you ask me.
Now, can you explain how if we were to build a fence around the dirt pile that he will poo in, then how will he get in it to use it? Hmm. A riddle wrapped up in an enigma.
And you're right. Dad is capable of building one wicked chelter/cenel out there, but seeing as we still don't have all the knobs on our kitchen cabinets three years after building, I think Dad's efforts would be better applied elsewhere.
Alas, I know you offered to pay for it, but I did my homework, and it's pretty much college or a yorkie. I know that's an easy choice for you, seeing as you're only 9, but I really really need you to go to college. Afterall, who will pay for my nursing home when I'm a lonely old widow lady and all I have to keep me company is an adorable little teacup yorkie?
P.S. I admire your persistence.
P.P.S. Spelling homework right after dinner.

As always... you made me laugh!
My kids beg for a dog 24/7! I completely understand how you feel. I'm afraid we might give in one day. Maybe for a teacup yorkie....
Great reading as always! Hope to see you soon!
That is so funny! Poor thing! Didn't you feel for her for just a little bit? I wish there was some way to teach kids the concept of "the novelty wares off". Not sure if that is the right "ware". Maybe I need to do my spelling homework as well!
I love that she wrote you a note. :) and that you wrote her back! :) I love reading your posts!
mom i really want a dog and i don't have spelling homework for the rest of the year
love,
aiden
I have no idea why I was reading this today, but OH how it makes me laugh. I'm with Aiden on this one, those Yorkies are SWEET! Even if they ARE larger than a tea cup!
Who is creeped out by a precious puppy?!
