Let the dogs out

June 13th, 2008 by Treena Shapiro

I was in bed nursing a chest cold last night while my 4-year-old bounced around singing, “Let the dogs out, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo!”

Who let the dogs out?” I corrected.

“You,” she responded.

“No,” I explained. “The song goes, “Who let the dogs out?”

“Knock, knock,” she said, ignoring me.

“Who’s there?”

“Let the dogs out.”

“Let the dogs out, who?”

“Let the dogs out, ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo!” she said as she resumed jumping around.

“Woof,” I muttered and let her go.

    that was a cute joke!! you notice how sometimes kids can outsmart us without us even realizing? lol!! i might try and use that joke…but of course the cute factor won’t be as high!

    I just want to say you are a true beauty.

    Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

    If your dad didn’t get you this job you wouldn’t be wasting everyone’s time here. The entire staff at the Star Bulletin and Advertiser know you have no talent and your dad got you this work.

    Just like your dad, you are another hypocrite making a living hiding behind the 1st Amendment, but censoring other people’s opinions if you don’t agree.


  5. WhoCaresIndeed:

    WhoCare’s accusations are absurd.

    Treena may have her father’s talented DNA, but she is a gifted writer and astute reporter in her own right who’s worked very hard to get where she is.

    And, as regular readers of this blog will attest, she’s doing this while working just as hard at being a good single mother.
