Bearce Springsteen ♪♫

This morning I heard a loud thump in the living room.  I went to see what it was.  There was a large bear who had just set down his guitar case.  Was it Bear Lennon giving another living room performance?

"Hello," I said.  "Is that you, Bear Lennon?"

He turned around.

"No, it's me, Bearce Springsteen," he said.

"Ooogie!  Come here!  It's Bearce Springsteen about to give a concert in our living room," I called.

Ooogie and I had a front row seat while Bearce Springsteen treated us to his hit songs, such as "Born to Fish", "The River (Full of Fish)", "Walk Like a Bear", "Reason to BEE-lieve", and "Honey Road."

Do you like any Bearce Springsteen songs?

Christmas gift exchange

(I am a few days late in posting this but I thought you might like to read it anyways.)

"Uncle Tibbs, you will not believe what happened!" I said excitedly.

"Oh really?  What happened?" he asked.

"I met Santa Claus!"

"You did?"  Uncle Tibbs raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, he came down the chimney on Christmas Eve."

"He did?  What did he look like?"

"Hmm," I thought for a moment.  "Well, he was about your height and your weight -- "

"Are you saying that I'm fat, Ajdin?" Uncle Tibbs said, smiling.

"No no no, it's just that he kind of looked like you and also had a similar voice and -- "

"Well I'm very glad you got to meet him!" Uncle Tibbs interjected.  "I have a Christmas present for you, Ajdin."

"Wow, thank you!  It's a ukulele.  And I have something for you, Uncle Tibbs.  I'll be right back."

"ERGHHHH...UNGHHHHH...Phew!  This is heavy," I said, pushing his present towards him.

"Need a paw there, Ajdin?" Uncle Tibbs asked.  "Oh wow, it's a guitar!  How beary cool!"  (Uncle Tibbs rarely says "beary" so I know that he was beary excited about the guitar.)

"Hey Ajdin, I have an idea.  I think we should start a band, what do ya say?"

"That's a great idea, but I will need some music lessons first!"

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!
