Saturday is bathing day
Saturday is a bad day.
On Saturday we all take a bath.
I hate water!
But it’s funny to see Rick in the bathtub.
He has got two long legs and two short legs.
No, they say “arms“.
Rick has got big feet, knees, and toes.
His brown hair on his head stands up with shampoo.
The shampoo runs down his shoulders.
His brown eyes and his nose are full of soap.
His mouth is singing.
Uuuuuhhhh!
His fingers are in his ears.
I can’t put my fingers into my ears.
Rick washes his neck, his belly, and the rest of his body.
“Mary, please, help me!“
Oh, Rick can’t wash his back.
Mary must help.
It is time for me to run away.
I better hide under the stairs.
Mary will put ME into the bathtub next!

At the window
We have a big window in the kitchen.
Sometimes Mary takes the flowers away and puts me onto the window sill.
Then she puts her arm around me, we look outside and chat.
“Look Gilbert, there is the sun!
It stopped raining.“
“Woof!“
“But it’s cold and windy.
It is good to be here in the house.“
“Woof, woof!“
“Oh, look, there is Rosie with Ruby!“
“Oh, wahuuuu!“
I love Ruby. She is a West Highland Terrier lady.
But she does not see me.
“There is a blackbird in the tree and a wren, oh – and a redbreast.
It sings. Can you hear it?“
“Ohhhuuuuuh!“
“There is a blue car.“
“Rrrrrrr!“
“And a red car ...“
“Rrrrrrr !“
“And a silver car ... Who is it?“
“Hm???“
It’s Rick! It’s Rick’s car.
Put me on the floor!
Let me out!
