Littlest Ninja Sure Knows How to Skid...

Whooo-hooo! I think my prison sentence is OVER!!! The annoying Spokeswoman took all three of us for a walk yesterday. It sure was good to get out from behind the walls of that privacy fence! We would've gotten to walk longer, but Littlest Ninja got injured. She had made the mistake of letting that psychotic little Border Collie take her running. Littlest Ninja, in case I haven't mentioned it before, is fast as the wind. That Ninja can RUN! In fact, it is rumored by several of the teachers at her school that she is the fastest first grader out of all 200 first graders in her school! Last year, they had races during field day and Littlest Ninja beat everyone...over and over again. Even after she had already raced multiple times without a rest in between, she was still able to beat even fresh runners. Some of the boys were so desperate to beat her that they pushed themselves so hard they wound up on the sidelines throwing up...THAT is what made her a LEGEND at her school

Anyway, tonight, she was running like a wind with that hyperactive Border Collie when disaster struck. She tripped. She was still holding tight, as she went down, to Rivie (who didn't trip) and so she skidded quite a ways and really skinned herself up badly. She's a tough Ninja, though! She didn't cry a bit or fuss at all...just hiked up her dress (to keep it out of the blood) and marched the mile back home! I wanted to lick her knee for her, but the obnoxious Spokeswoman kept interfering with my efforts. I hope Littlest Ninja knows I tried to clean her knee for her. That Spokeswoman is going to meddle too much one of these days!

Well, I don't know how the voting ever turned out on Suzuki's blog. I thought the vote was going to be over Monday morning, but then when I checked Monday morning it was going on through Tuesday morning. It was running pretty close when I checked late Monday night, but then when I checked on Tuesday, the voting poll had been taken down and no results were posted. It's Thursday now and I still haven't heard who won. Oldest Ninja told me, though, that SHE will interview me here on THIS blog! I'm not sure exactly when she is planning on doing this...but I'm really looking forward to it! I can't wait to see what she wants to ask me! She's been so busy with track and soccer lately, that I hardly get to see her....so, I'm pretty excited that she is going to take time out to interview me!!! I hope she invites me into the HOUSE for the interview!!!! And, maybe she will serve me ICE CREAM during the interview...that would be a very hospitable and polite thing to do!!!
