April 30th, 2010 | 1 Comment

THE BEST MOTHER’S DAY written by Debbie Williamson Fawn and Spot were wondering what they could do for Mrs. Hansen on Mother’s Day. They wanted to do something really special for her. She has never treated them as her barn yard animals or even as pets. Mrs. Hansen has always treated Fawn and Spot like her own children.   “I really wish I could make it to your graduation ceremony,” Fawn overheard Mrs. Hansen say to her daughter, Jenny. “I just can’t afford it right now.”   “Spot,” said Fawn. “I have the perfect idea for a gift for Mrs. Hansen. How much money do you have saved up?”   “A couple of hundred dollars,” said Spot.   “Me too,” said Fawn. “That should be enough.”   “Enough for what?” asked Spot.   “Enough to get Mrs. Hansen a plane ticket so she can … Read entire article »

PUGGLES written by Debbie Williamson Six year old Barbara came home from school, rushed up to her bedroom and threw her backpack down on her bed. Immediately, she took out her homework. She went over to her desk and sat down. She pulled out her homework and completed it quickly, but made sure that she made no mistakes. She knew that her mother would be in to see it soon. "Imagine that," thought Barbara's favourite teddy bear, Puggles to himself. "Ever since she got that new computer for Christmas, she never plays with me anymore.

February 5th, 2010 | 1 Comment

THANKSGIVING written by Debbie Williamson “I am so depressed,” said Fawn. “Why?” asked Spot. “Today is Thanksgiving. We are having turkey and pumpkin pie.” “That is why I am depressed,” said Fawn. “Not about the turkey and the pumpkin pie but about the fact that it is Thanksgiving.” “I understand,” said Spot, knowing that Fawn was actually depressed about the family situation and not the actual holiday itself. “You know that Grampy would come if he could. However, BC is a long way from Ontario.” “Yes,” said Fawn. “It’s not just Grampy. It is the fact that Nanny, Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma are not here anymore either.” “Well,” said Spot. “Just because they are not here physically, doesn’t mean they can’t be here spiritually.” “Umm, I guess,” said Fawn. “It isn’t the same though. I mean we can’t talk … Read entire article »

UPS AND DOWNS written by Debbie Williamson Troll Baby sat in his high chair eating his favourite cereal, Trollios, when Troll Mother came into the kitchen and sat down at the table beside him. “Oh sweet innocent Troll Baby,” said Troll Mother. “You are so lucky. You have the rest of your life ahead of you. You have so many opportunities to do so much in your life.” Troll Daddy came into the kitchen and stood quietly, listening to Troll Mother talk. “Why are you sad Troll Mother?” asked Troll Baby. “I’m not really sad,” said Troll Mother. “I guess I am kind of depressed though.
