THANK YOU
~sighs~ Gingerbean here. I lost the contest. The votes were counted and I lost. The people decided that I was not the cutest pup around these parts. I was not even the SECOND cutest pup!! This is how I looked when my mom told me. I had to take to the bed cause I was so distraught. My mom said *NO NO NO Gingerbean! You will NOT feel sorry for yourself!* I get really tired hearing no no no all the time. Sometimes I think my mom just wants to hear herself talk and has nothing to say so she says NO NO NO!
Mom told me that I needed to put on my big girl panties and get a better attitude. I told me mom that I do not WEAR PANTIES! That is when my mom gave me her LOOK. You can ask my sister about THE LOOK. It SCARES me! Then my mom said *Gingerbean, pretty is as pretty does and you need to learn something from all of this.* Now tell me what in the HECK does that mean? She told me that to be really pretty it has to be on the INSIDE. And if you are pretty on the INSIDE then people will see that on the OUTSIDE. She told me that she knows lots of people who are just BEAUTIFUL but that she has never ever seen them. Now how does my mom know that?!?!?! Mom says its cause their hearts are pretty. And when our hearts are pretty...that comes out of us and the whole world can see it. hhhhmmmmmm
Mom told me that a good way to start being pretty on the inside is to think about the things that I am thankful for. Then she made me tell her what I was thankful for.


1) Scritches on the top on my head between my ears and on my whiskers
2) Food....I love food!
3) Ice
4) My baby blanket
5) Seeing my brother come in the door
6) Peanut butter dog treats
7) That wonderful space under my mom's bed that I run and hide in when my brother is chasing me....or when I am chewing up something I should not have. No one can reach me there *grins*
8) Midnight my buddy next door. He is a black lab. He tells me that I am a short dog but that is not true! I am as tall as he is! I think he just stands on his tip toes when I am around. He likes to pee on me but that is not part of my thankfulness list.
9) And each and every person that took the time to vote for me. I do not have a list of people. The contest does not let me see who voted. So I just want to say.......................


You are most welcome GB. And you are a winner in my eyes, no question.
ReplyDeleteYou are a sweet pup, GB. If Tanner was still around, he would share "Peace of the Paw" with you.
ReplyDeleteBeanie, you are the best!
ReplyDeleteGingie! You are a princess, and you'll always be my favorite WebDog!
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you didn't win, Ginger Bean. What do they know? My mom and I voted for you, too.
ReplyDeleteSomeone stuffed the ballot box ~growls~
Beatrice
Phooey! (And your lab buddy pees on you?)
ReplyDeleteAWww.. she's so adorable. Just like her mommy.. beautiful inside and out.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Tell you mom that I left an award for her over at my place, and she can pass it on, or not, as she likes.
ReplyDeleteWhat? You didn't win? Say not so! Why, I'd call for a recount. Those other dogs must have stolen the election, that's the only explanation for such an egregious outcome such as this.
ReplyDeleteGingerbean, you are lovely inside and out. My mom says you are a winner no matter what that paper says. (She tried to vote for you twice, but they wouldn't let her.) Learn from this and continue to grow--and someday you will be as wise and beautiful as I am.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Amie
SHE IS THE WINNER IN MY EYES!
ReplyDeleteI love GB! Best, sweetest, and cutest puppy in all of Texas! :)
ReplyDeleteOh Gingerbean...you were ripped off! But that's OK, because your mom is a wise, wise woman. And I bet you can get a few extra of those peanut butter cookies you love so well. Cookies make everything better!
ReplyDeleteYou were robber Ginger! ROBBED!!! I voted for you, and I called and e-mailed bunches of my friends and they voted for you too.
ReplyDeleteI love you Ginger Baby, even if you do chew stuff up, and poop behind the couch, and pee where I will step in it.
And, you REALLY taught those dogs next door a lesson, cause I haven't heard a peep out of them since you left. They sure did learn their lesson!!!
Do you know what Gingerbean.....I think you did not win that contest because you are so far and above the others that they wanted to give them a chance.
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely the winner around here!!!!
*sending scritches*
Gingerbean is a cutie! The picture with the "thank you" note is just too much!
ReplyDeleteYou already won the privilege to live with a beautiful mommy...so you weren't due again for a while. We love you.
ReplyDeleteAwww, Ginger Bean, you learned a good leasson! And thanks for showing us your adorable bob!!
ReplyDeleteLove you GB!! You need to tell your mom to come to Indiana so you can play with Miss M. You would have a lot of fun on the farm!
ReplyDeleteGingerbean - I think it was rigged, someone cheated because you are the cutest dog in them there parts. Take it from your Aunt Dijea. There is NO one cuter.
ReplyDeleteExtra sckritches from me.
oh gingerbean... mochajava thinks you are beautiful... he says he's all stocked up on pb biscuits... so come on over. but uh we have a blizzard on the way... so make sure you bring your cute checkered coat along!
ReplyDeletethat is about the most adorable thing I've ever seen!
ReplyDeleteChelsea loves ice too!
Gingerbean is so beautiful...inside & out!
What is her birthday? Chelsea's is June 30. They look nearly exactly the same size. Chelsea is 23 lbs.
hugs, Cheryl
How cute! I am sorry that you didn't win! You are a cute puppy!
ReplyDeletePrincess Pup of Everything, I love that you still have a puppy blanket. Tell your mom I said thank you for becoming a follower of my Extremely Crafty blog. I wish I had a doggie as cute as you.
ReplyDeleteYou two are too cute!
ReplyDeleteHave a great Saturday!
Tanielle
Ginger, you are a fine dog. Didn't win? No problem, let a lesser dog take the prize this time. Kind of you to allow another dog to win.
ReplyDeleteWe are thankful for you,dear doggie. You make our Mindy happy.
oh G'Beany. You are so perfect and amazing in every way. Like your mom.
ReplyDeleteYou're such a beauty, GB, just like your mom!
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed that you posed so well, Shotgun! You got those other dogs beat in a pose-down, anyday!!
ReplyDeleteHey! Just noticed you on my followers thingie and wanted to come...well.. I guess..check you out? Somehow, that sounded better in my head. Anyhow--that last pic--of her with the Thank You sign is SO cute!! How can they not think that she is the cutest?! And I loved the lab that stands on his tip toes----nice to meetcha! (If I already know you--I am sufficiently sheepish and want a do over)
ReplyDeleteGingerbean, you are so beautiful, inside and out. Clearly the contest was rigged, and you can't let that bother you. And by the way, as I always tell my beloved Pepper, ladies do NOT let boys pee on them!!
