Acorns

In these parts acorns start falling at the tail end of August. They increase their rate of hitting the ground by the time September fully arrives. There is no shortage of acorn trees in Texas! We've always lived near acorn trees.

Here's the kicker, I don't think for the rest of my days on this earth I will be able to look at acorns scattered on the ground and not think about my Simmie-boo-boo. He was a feign for acorns. His eyes got wide and buggy. Wait, he was a pug, his eyes were rather buggy all the time! But that crazed/excited buggy look he used to get was priceless! Absolutely, priceless in the opinion of his human parents. His mommie and daddy miss seeing that excited little face around the house. Actually, no one knows this but Brad does a great imitation of Simon's crazed/excited buggy face. LOL! Super funny to see!

I'm thinking the squirrels that have been good enough to make it to heaven have some serious competition to get to the acorns this year, since Simmie is on the scene! Go get them little man, go get yourself some acorns! But don't spoil your dinner!
