| Hey Piggy! Whatchya doing? Wanna come out to play? |  |
| Hi Mat! I'd love to play...but I'm learning how to climb stairs, today! | .jpg) |
| When I get to do home visits...There's always stairs! Dottie usually has to carry me up them. And as soon as my feet are off the ground...I squeal like a pig! That scares me...and the people I come to visit! So...today....I have to learn how to climb stairs! | _a.jpg) |
| Do you really expect me to try this for a measly 2 cranberries? I don't think so! | _a.jpg) |
| That's more like it! But I'm still scared to go head first down the steps! I like my ramps! You can coax me all you want! It's not gonna happen! | .jpg) |
| Yes I want those cranberries! Why don't you give me a couple for even thinking about doing it! | .jpg) |
| Hey, Mat! Don't rush me! This is a lot harder than it looks! | .jpg) |
| Why can't we just bring ramps with us, when we go to visit? I like climbing ramps! | .jpg) |
| Aw...come on, Piggy! Stairs are easy! You can get to the food faster! | .jpg) |
| I can teach Piggy how to climb stairs, Dottie! I taught her how to go up and down the ramps, didn't I? | .jpg) |
All you have to do is put your front feet on the step...like this, Piggy! That's easy for you to do, Mat! Your legs are twice as long as mine! | .jpg) |
It's so easy, Piggy! Once you get your front feet on the step, then you bring your back legs down! And there ya go! You did a step! Oh...I don't know...Mat! I don't think I can fit on the step! My body doesn't squish like yours! Piggy...then just look down...and the rest of you will follow! That's what I'm afraid of, Mat! | .jpg) |
| Piggy has a point, there, Dottie! This is gonna take awhile! Can I have a cranberry for trying? | .jpg) |
| Yes...I love to go visiting! Yes...everybody has stairs! No! It's just way to scarey for me! Maybe if I had longer legs and a body that can squish together...but I don't! This could take all day, you know! Can I have lunch first? | .jpg) |
| Oh! Banana! My most favorite food in the whole world! I want that piece of banana! I can do it! Yeah! Munch munch munch! | .jpg) |
| Just a little bit more! | .jpg) |
| Gotchya! Hmmmm....There's the rest of it...way up there! | .jpg) |
| I can do this! I'm gonna do this! | .jpg) |
| I did it! | .jpg) |
| That was really tough! But I did it! | .jpg) |
Ta - Da! I did it! I climbed my first set of stairs! | .jpg) |
| Oh? Now I have to climb down them? | .jpg) |
| Let me see...two front feet on the step...and look down at the next one! | .jpg) |
And the rest of me will follow! Yep! | .jpg) |
| I did it! That was easy! I can't believe I was afraid of stairs! Not any more! | .jpg) |
| Oh...no! Different kind of step! Let me see... | .jpg) |
| Two front feet on the step...and look down! The rest of me will follow! | .jpg) |
| I did it, Dottie! Yes! I am a good girl! Now can I go play with Mat? | .jpg) |
| That took us hours to learn! But Dottie is very patient! It's a trust thing! We're both happy that I can do stairs, now! | .jpg) |
| For every rose...there's a thorn! Now she has to close and lock the gate if she just wants me to stay on the porch! I'll have that lock figured out in no time! | .jpg) |
