Letty's Back by Murphy Doodle

Letty's back

 when I was a puppy letty held me on her shoulder  my nose sniffed her ear { } and she made funny noises { } and shook her body ";" 

the next year and the next year letty and jack played soccer with me. .  .   .    . toss the Frisbee and keep away with tennis balls and toys... I love those games  

last year jack began to walk with me every 
morning sometimes without letty....that made me sad so i slept in her chair 

one cold winter day letty sat down to write her stories, not my stories

i thought she forgot about me

i pawed at her and she said NO!!

Sometimes when i whine she will rub my neck

I slept on the bed behind her and she smiled and petted me.

I slept on her feet and she { giggled } so i did it again and again }{ so i could be with her  I missed letty rubbing my belly everyday

i missed letty tossing toys in the house everyday for 2 years now

one day when it was 2 hot 4 me 2 play outside she stood up from the "come peewt her" and did a funny dance step and said, " 'Murphy please dance with me' "

I jumped off the bed and ran down the hallway in my zoomie run

she laughed and chased me

back and forth and forth and back we ran

Now everyday she has rubbed my belly {}{}{}{}

i love letty and i like her front  much better than her back

i think she loves me 2

*Note from the editor--Murphy likes to use funny symbols rather than , and .  I think his spelling has improved. 

Best of all I am in the final editing stages of the latest collection of stories "Jefferson Then and Now 1894-2025, Norman, Oklahoma's landsite school." I plan to play everyday with Murphy now and begin coloring in Zen patterns with crayons and colored pencils.
