10 Sewphie Says. Just because Terri writes the s and Newsletters now instead of my Mom doesn t mean they are going to shut me up.. Yes, this picture of me is in Eli s (the mean bird s) cage. I share everything with Eli and just because I get in his cage every now and then to rest he turns on me and bites me. His Mom had put what was left of her chicken pot pie in Eli s cage, and yes I thought it was for me. So I jumped in to look it over and then Boom the bird chased me to the back of the cage. I couldn t get out. I was crying and Mom came to my rescue. Just because he can sing and dance doesn t mean anything. One more thing, this Fun House retreat center is working me to death. Mom makes me go back and forth with her each time she goes there (then she stops at the new bakery while leaving me tied to the Handicap Parking sign). It was my first ride in an elevator and no, I did not like it. But I ll come check on you when you re there sewing and I ll probably check your purses to see if you brought me a treat while I m there. Just sayin Love Sewphie ELI Says.CRY BABY!!!! I m the BIG DEAL HERE! 10
