Well, we was weally jealuss each time Mum tole us 'bout how all youse other
fuzzies gots those cewl bins o' rice to dig in.  We wanted one too!  We
tole her an' tole her but Mum wouldn't let us have one no matter how much
we begged an' pooped in the wrong corners.  She said sumfin' bout us making
a huuuge mess an' rice costing lotsa raisins (or sumfin' like that).
Hrrrmmph!!!
 
So imagine our s'prise today when she woked us up for our second playtime!
She picked us up outta our special sleepy sack and kissed us an' carried us
into the bathroom.  At first we was scared that maybe we was gonna get
*gasp* a BATH, but...no!!!
 
Instead, she plunked us down in the bathtub and...well you will never
believe it!!!  It was full, almos to da top, with this really cold white
stuff!!!  We had never seen nuthin' like this before!  It sorta smushed
under our pawses when we walked and clung to our whiskers when we pushed
our faces in it, and best of all, it's REALLY fun to dig in!!!
 
Mum pushed a chair an' a box up next to the tub so's we could climb out
when our feets get too cold, but the room is nice an' warm so she says we
can play in dere as much as we want til it turns into water.  Wow!!!
 
Anyways I'm jes takin a break here to warm my feet and brush the stuff off
my whiskers then i'm back off to dig more of that GREAT tunnel we's working
on!  We did, though, want to give our bestest dooks and fuzzy kisses to all
the wonderful ferts and hoomans whose been so nice to us and our person.
You are all wonderful!  And special kisses for those fuzzies who are sick
or losted or gone over the bridge, and for their hoomans.
 
Bright holiday blessings!
