My Stars & Poor Kona

While in Hawaii we bought Mia a ukulele which she refers to as her "target" which is how she usually says guitar. She wants to be just like Papa and play her "target". She even dug through her toy box for her microphone. Sometimes Mia gets it right and calls her toy a ukulele, but I think it's pretty funny when she calls it her "target". Here's a video clip of Mia and Papa.

POOR KONA Last night I took Kona for a potty break. Unusual because she usually does not need one, but I had taken her out earlier in the afternoon than usual so I thought she might need a break. I also needed to get our mail. We walked out to the tot play area and the next thing I know our neighbor's dog is charging for Kona and is off leash. This is the second incident with the same dog. I dropped my mail and started yelling, "NO! NO! NO!" But the dog got Kona on the back before I was able to pick her up and before the owner came out. Kona has some bruising, but no puncture wound. She was so scared, she yelped a very high pitched yelp for about 30 seconds after it happened. Papa was and still is mad and wants the dog put down. We'll see what happens. I left things very cordial and our neighbor was very apologetic, but at the same time that dog should never be off leash. It's against the city's codes and our townhome's rules and regulations.
