Two Kinds of Hearts

Valentine Cookies are Yummy

Welcome Friends,

Red and pink hearts are popping up everywhere. They’re on cards, candy, cookies and cakes. Hearts even dance on socks and underpants. Hooray for Valentine’s Day!!!!!!!

TT here, Stubb, BEWARE of UNDERWEAR  with HEARTS.  

I creep closer to some kids waiting for the school bus. They’re eating, laughing and looking a valentine cards.

“Who needs a valentine card. I have a heart right in here.” The red headed kid taps his chest and grins.”It’s a big pump made of muscle.”

TT here. I don’t care about some kid’s big pump! I want some valentine  cookies. They don’t have to have hearts, but they better be BIG!!

A girl with glasses and curly hair jumps up and down. My heart is the size of my fist and it’s beats 60 to 100 beats a minute.

“I read a book that said, at the end of your life your heart will have beat around 3 billion times,” says the boy. He hugs himself and smiles. “I’m a walkin, takin miracle.”

The curly haired girl yells, “Top this! If you leave the kitchen faucet on for 45 years that’s the amount of blood your heart pumps through our body in a lifetime.”

“TT, we have a heart, too.”

Who cares! I’m hungry and I want to eat. Valentine’s Day is for eating. Stubb, where is your heart?? Let’s eat it NOW!!!!!!

“It’s beating in my chest.”

What??  Valentine heart in there. Sounds weird to me. BIG TIME WEIRD!!!!!

“My heart keeps us alive. It’s beating 70 to 120 times a minute, right now.”

Here’s an order! Sit up, look cute and beg. Maybe those kids will feed you, and YOU means Me; your TERRIFIC TUMMY.

I trot up the the kids and sit down. I give my paw.

“Here’s two valentine cookies.” The red head hands me two heart shaped red cookies with sparkly sugar. He pets me and scratches my ears.

The school bus pulls up and the kids jump on.

“Heads up TT. These heart cookies are yummy, but don’t forget the wonderful heart inside that keeps us alive.”

Your heart is my friend. His Dub, Dub, Dub sound rocks me to sleep at night, when I’m hungry and growling.

A Happy Valentine’s Day to you. Remember, we are walkin takin MIRACLES.

Stubb and TT
