My Dog Ate It!

I remember when I was in Elementary school it was very important not be late on a homework assignment. Especially the type that affected your grades. I can still hear the teacher asking the students to turn in their homework. Someone would always pipe up and say, my dog ate it. As funny as that seemed to be at the time, I never really thought anymore about it. Just another excuse not to have their homework done. I now think, maybe I shouldn't have giggled under my breath so much about it, as we all seemed to do at the time.
I was reading my favorite book the other day, which happens to be the Bible. My Pomeranian, Izzy, lies close to my side on the couch while I read. She has been doing this as long as I can remember. I love it when she's close to me like that. Anyway, I heard a funny rustling, scrunching, crunching sound. I looked around but didn't see anything and the sound seemed to stop. I was just starting to turn the page of my book and it was totally stuck. I looked down at Izzy looking up at me. What a Princess she is with those beautiful eyes of hers that melt my heart. Oh goosh, that ended fast when I saw my pages chewed off at the bottom corner of my book. Not just any book, my favorite book, the Bible. Izzy, what the, blank did you do you little, blankity blank. Forgive me Lord for what I was saying and thinking about Izzy. Ha! I know one things for sure. If you hear someone say their dog ate their assignment or whatever it may be, they just might have, mine did.
