Every Thursday, one lucky friend in my classroom gets to bring home our class pet for the weekend. Once at your home, you take him on fun adventures, snuggle with him, take pictures and then bring him back on Monday for a class presentation.
Every week since the start of the school year, someone elses name gets chosen. Every week, I'm a little sad that he's not coming home with me - but I'm excited that I will one day get to bring him home.
Last Thursday (since I don't have school on Fridays), we were discussing our weekend plan. My plan was to go to the Auto Show with Phin, Mom and Dad - something we look forward to all year. Well, at the end of the day April (one of my teachers) held the hat with names above her head and picked out the lucky kid who would bring our class pet, Pigglesworth, home for the weekend. She grabbed a piece of paper, and announced "Looks like Pigglesworth is going to the auto show with Amelia!"
I told Dad that I played it cool when they called my name, but I was SOOOOOO excited! All Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday I got to take Pigglesworth (he's a lovable pig) with me! Piggleworth was the first time a guest had come to our house just to see me! The whole weekend was all about Pigglesworth and me.
We took him to the car show, to the Lunar New Years Festival, we took him out to eat, dressed him up in tutu, and even made him pancakes (his favorite) and bacon (he does not like bacon). I even let Phin snuggle and play with Pigglesworth.
You can see all of my Pigglesworth photos here! Oh Pigglesworth, I miss you already - thank you for coming to visit!!!!!!
You can also see how much we've grown:
