Spanky’s Story

by Tatum Ramsay (five years old)
with Nana Ramsay
12/4/07

My Nana and Papa moved in with me. Their dog Spanky moved in too. Spanky likes to chase the ball. I throw the ball and Spanky runs after it.
My dad plays with Spanky. He throws the ball and Spanky runs after it. Spanky never gets tired of playing. When he is tired he breathes heavily and his tongue hangs out.
When Spanky is finished playing he takes a nap in the garage. He can’t come in the house because I have two kittens named Abby and Alex. Spanky would like to play with them but I’m afraid he will hurt them.
Spanky watches us from the sliding-glass door as we eat our dinner. He whines and wants to come in but he can’t. He has to stay outside.
I get ready for bed after I take my bath. My papa gives him a bath sometimes but not very often. Spanky does not like to take a bath.
My mommy makes yummy Snickerdoodles. We sit at the table and eat them and Spanky wants some cookies too. He can’t have any cookies.
We listen to Christmas music as we talk to Nana and Papa. Nana goes to bed and soon Papa will too.
I go upstairs to my bed and I hear Papa open the door and let Spanky in. Spanky happily sleeps between my Nana and Papa.
Everyone in the house goes to sleep. All is quiet in the Ramsay home, except for Alex and Abby wildly tumbling through the hall and down the stairs.
Nana and Papa sleep while Spanky snores as he whimpers in his sleep.

The End
