I got to go outside today. Mom had said that we might go out and look at some of the trees, but we ran out of time. Instead, we went sat out on the porch. I got to sit on the new chairs with the comfy seats. It has been rather cool this summer, which makes it good weather for bears covered in fur to sit outside. Mom let me water the plants with her. She says that we might try to go outside tomorrow before she has to go to work. I want to climb a tree!  

Mom also says that I might go to work with her tomorrow. I spend the entire time inside her backpack. I’m there for moral support. She says that it’s been kind of tough for her at work—especially when she has to close. So I might go with. All I do is sit in the backpack next to her on her breaks, but it’s the thought that counts. It’ll all depend on how she feels when she’s got to go to work. Maybe she’ll bring Caleb instead. Caleb fits inside her purse. I like going out though. I’m going to leave the decision up to her.

Mom brought Caleb, my bear, to work today in her purse! Sometimes, he comes with her in her backpack. But she’s unable to look at him because she doesn’t want anyone to see his secret hiding place. But since she bought her new purse, there is much more room in there. So he took a little trip today in the safety of her purse! He said it was kind of fun. He sat in her purse on her lap during both of her breaks. He even peeked out and looked around when she was on her longer break and there wasn’t anyone in the break room. I’m WAY too big to fit in her purse, but maybe someday I can go to work with her in her backpack. I’ve gone to school with her--- and even to the zoo. I think work would be a great adventure!
