"Pigs are friends not food!"


When Finley was 2, I read Charlotte's Web to all the kids before we went to see the movie and she was hooked. Well 2 pig birthday parties later she is more obsessed with pigs than ever. Well for those of you who haven't talked to Finley lately the first rule for people who love pigs is "Pigs are friends not food" (She also wanted to put that on a sign in front of the pork at the grocery store. As a wise mother I told her she might get in trouble for that.) Her life desire currently is to grow up to be a pig farmer where and I quote "Little Pigs get a chance to grow up with out ever worrying about being someone's dinner". Here are the rest of her rules.

Rule #2 You always let your pig enjoy the mud a dirty pig is a happy pig.

#3 If your pig is oinking oink with him.

#4 (and my personal favorite)Your pig must get good slop to truly be happy.

Because she got some good laughs when she announced her "piggy proclomation" which is what we have been calling it she has been thinking up many more of her pigisms. I'll keep you up to date on Finley's campaign to save the pigs! A word of warning it's wise not to mention anything about a fondness for bacon or pork chops in her presence...
