I want to be an explorer!

I was wide-awake this morning when mum came to give me my breakfast, I wasn’t even bothered about eating – I just wanted to play!  I ran through my tube lots of times and then mum left me alone while she had her breakfast.  When she came back in the kitchen I tried to escape through the open door, but she was too quick for me, and pushed me back across the slippy floor so she could get through.

While she was upstairs getting ready I saw my chance to be mischievous, I was running around being silly and realised that the bottom of the cupboards wasn’t fixed on!  Wow… I pushed and pushed with all my strength and managed to knock one of the boards down!  I had lots of fun playing underneath the cupboards but it was very DIRTY! 

BUT then… Mum came and caught me and put the wood back in its proper place.  I got shouted at, but tried to knock them down again anyway.  Mum was in the way though, washing the pots and keeps sliding me across the floor with her foot!

I like playing games in the morning, and mum even gave me a treat for being a good boy.  Although she did seem quite eager to shut me away in my cage.  I heard her telling Daddy what I’d done, but he just laughed and called me a silly boy!

I think tonight I might try to do some climbing… I am an expert at getting on the top of the sofa now, and that’s where mum keeps her handbag – out of my reach!
