Terrible Mothers in History

Oscar Bean Super Teen here to deliver a history lesson about the Worst Mothers In the World.

Medea, who killed her children to get revenge on their father Jason.

Mommy Dearest.  She'd prefer you not use those wire hangers.

Gertrude, Hamlet's mama who killed his pops and got it on with his uncle all while Hamlet was going through his goth phase.

My ma ape (artist's rendering.)  Wednesday was my burpday and she 1) sent away my GranNE who I love more than anything 2) forgot my burpday until 3 p.m. 3) did not bake me a cake 4) did not shower me with gifts.

This is one sad sheppy!  The other dogs put together a short film for me.  At least someone loves me.

Memories for GranNE

We are certain that our GranNE is crying herself to sleep thinking about how much she is missing us. Ever so much! So we made a little video of all the things she is missing while she is away from us.

When GranNE came to town!

Our GranNE came all the way from NE to visit us!  It was the most awesome ever because she feeds us wallymelon and lets us play outside and tells me how sweet we are and how bossy Edgrr is!  We followed her around like the Pied Piper of Woodsman Drive.

Our ma ape is super mean and made GranNE work in the yard like the whole time.  She was very lucky that we helped her and we're pretty sure that she could not have done it without our heaping helping of help.  See?  So much help.

GranNE put down lots of mulch and planted lots of plants and even accidentally planted one pit boo.  We will have to see how big he gets!

And our ma ape ordered 2 cubic yards of mulch to be dumped in our driveway. It did not help the driveway grow much so our GranNE helped us put it in the garden.  And look--sheppy camouflage!  (Otis is putting down roots back there!)

And GranNE helped us start a privacy hedge so that we don't bark at everything that walks by and so that mean kids don't taunt us through the fence.

Edgrr tried to help from the other side of the fence.  He's just a baby and he doesn't know how to help like we do.

He mostly just lounged around while the rest of us work:

Look! GranNE gave us a smoke tree!  Thanks GranNE!  Since they legalized medicinal marijuana in Delaware this will come in handy!* (*Not that kind of smoke tree. -ed.)

Our GranNE did get a day long furlough to go to Philly to see some art and eat some ducks and stand by a goat.

She also met this unusual dog but she said we're way cuter.

GranNE also shared a lot of loves with us, even annoying Edgrr.

But we all know who her favorite is!  I am a very anxious boy but I love my GranNE so very much.

In fact, Nebraska is having bad bad floods right now and their nuclear plants are flooded so I think she should just stay with me and be my full time GranNE Nanny.  For her safety, not for me. Oh no, I am thinking only of her.

Come back soon GranNE!  Next time you can just spend all your time loving on me instead of on all those plants!
