Temptation Triumphs! The Tiniest Tiger’s Time Out!

Gracey's Blog

23 May

Those leaves look so tasty!

Friends, those leaves are too high for me to reach.  I know if I leap, I will make too much noise and get redirected into the house and the sunrrom will be off limits to me.  That would be a shame on such a sunny day.  I better try my best to enjoy the dirt and watch out the window.

Lowering the Limb to Nibble on Leaves

While enjoying the sunshine, I figured out that I didn’t have to leap into the air to get the leaves, but that I could bend the limb of the fig tree bringing the leaves down to me.  This was genious, if  I don’t say so myself.  The most tender leaf is still a little bit too high, so I will just have to tug a little harder.

Uh Oh! I went too far!

 OH MY!  Friends, I went too far!  I pulled too hard and I broke the branch.  Oh sadness.  My fig tree. What have I done.  Uh oh….I hear my mom too.  I am so going to be redirected. ~heavy sigh~  I didn’t mean to hurt the tree. 

Heading Inside for my Time Out

Friends, this is me, Gracey The Tiniest Tiger heading inside for my Time Out.  I deserve it this time, I really do.

    Gracey, we all make mistakes. But you know what the neat thing about parents is? They love you, and they forgive you. If they didn’t love you, they wouldn’t discipline you. You are a much loved kitty.

      Peggi, I deserved the time out today. I sure didn’t mean to break that branch.

        We all know you didn’t Gracey! I know sometimes it’s hard to understand when you get disciplined, but if our parents didn’t love us, they would not put us in time out to think about our actions. My son thinks we’re too strict with him sometimes, but I tell him that we are teaching him to be trustworthy, so when he becomes a teenager, we can let him do things and trust him and not worry as much. Maybe your parents are doing the same thing?

        A fig branch will more than likely grow back, and you will have learned your lesson, so there maybe won’t be a next time!
