Houdini turns a big whopping four today. Where has the time gone? It feels just like yesterday that Houdini was adopted and came to live at the Hotel Thompson.
We are keeping it pretty quiet today but later this evening, there will be a small party with Frosty Paws ice cream with a few anipal friends.
We just had to share this from Houdini’s first birthday – here he is blowing out his candle. Can you say aaww.
Happy Birthday pal!
Today, June 16th, is just a special day – it’s Father’s Day!! I have to say happy Father’s Day to my biological father, Champ. If it wasn’t for him and my mom, Bertha, I wouldn’t be here with my adopted family at the Hotel Thompson. So Happy Father’s Day Champ!
And then, my adopted dad. What can I say? He adopted me when I was a small tyke – I could barely walk! I knew nothing about life at a mere three weeks. I was still on formula and had to be taught everything. Do you know to this day, dad takes care of me during the day? While mom is at the worky place, dad makes sure that I get all of my nutritional food and that I’m happy until mom gets home. Isn’t that great? I guess you could call him my pigdad.
So, for today dad don’t worry about anything. Me, the purr things and mom will handle it at the Hotel Thompson. Heck, mom even said something about fixing your favorite food… and that I might get a taste. Hey – it’s a win win situation today!
Enough of the seriousness though. Let’s talk Bacon – oink chuckles. Just for today dad, you can sit back on the sofa, enjoy your television and have the remote. You don’t have to utter one word… especially the phrases I’ve heard you say around here. Oh, you look shocked. Let me remind you of some of the phrases – PLOL (Pig Laughing Out Loud). How many have you heard from your fathers?
Just because I love you doesn’t mean I have to like everything you do.
Because I’m the Dad, that’s why!
I brought you into this world, and I can take you out!
I’m a Dad, I know everything.
The sooner you learn to stand on your own two feet, the better off you’ll be. – which never makes sense to me since I have four feet – shakes piggy head
That’s just the way life is, son.
You make a better door than a window!
Were you born In a Barn? well, yes I was
Do you think money grows on trees? technically, it does 🙂
I haven’t developed gray hairs for nothing!
You are too young to understand this.
And my favorite all time one liner from dad –
Go ask your mother….. perfect… I will 🙂
