Day 1 - Friday
“It’s about time that you became more responsible for others,” said Mother.
Jack looked down at his feet forlornly. It sounded like he was going to have to do something that sounded very much like work.
Mother looked down at her son. She knew exactly what he was thinking.
“Don’t worry, Jack,” she smiled, “I think you’re going to like this. I’ve bought you a kitten!”
Jack beamed and a broad smile filled his face.
"Why, she's adorable!" he declared.
“But don’t forget, Jack,” said Mother, “you’ve got to look after her and feed her every day.”
“Oh, I won’t forget,” replied Jack. “I’ll start right now.”
“Just remember one thing,” Mother added, passing a treat to Jack. “Make sure that you don’t give her too much to eat!”
Furiously, the tiny kitten gobbled the titbit that the boy offered. Jack looked down at his adorable new pet and smiled.
“I’ll call her Gobbles,” said Jack. “That name suits her just fine!”
