[Gpdd] Misc: SPARKLES: The True Story of a special little dark brown piggie - part two

[corrine sakumoto]

At our place, all the piggies have their own little home.  So Sparkles has her own home, but her home is placed next to our oldest female, Mini.  They're always looking at each other, sniffing each other.  Sparkles has a new friend in Mini.  Even when they're moved to another island (from Oahu to the Big Island in Hawaii), Mini is still right beside her.  But then, one day, Mini has a stroke.  Soon, Mini is gone.  Sparkles is left without her friend.

So she's moved next to the two, Blossom, mompig, and Baby Truffles.  She loves and adores watching their antics almost as much as her mommy corrine does.  They're the only piggies sharing a pen, every other piggie has their own pen.

Sparkles does something that is always so endearing, she loves to stand up and look down the hallway.  Her pen is always placed close to the door of the bedroom.  At one end of the hallway is the main bedroom, where the piggies are, and at the other end is the bedroom where grandmommy and granddaddy stay when they visit.  Grandmommy uses the bathroom a lot, so she says, she tries to be quiet, but (here the doors are usually left open) as quiet as she is, she says it never fails, she'll look down at the end of the hallway and there's Sparkles, standing up, looking at her.  Every.  Single.  Time!  Grandmommy and granddaddy aren't piggie people but they love and adore Sparkles.  Every vet tech, anyone who has met her, fall instantly in love with her.  She has a very unique little face.  mommy corrine learned that the hard way too!  Sometimes she'll reach in to pet Sparkles, but she'll think, is your hair growing the opposite way?  Ooops! 
 That's your butt!  Sparkles doesn't like to be touched on the butt!  So now Sparkles is all mad while mommy corrine apologizes and apologizes.  So now mommy corrine learns to look for that cute little pointy nose.  Her body is pretty much all dark hair, but she has tiny little caramel brown hair surrounding that cute little nose.  mommy corrine's world is all right when she rubs Sparkles' hair and Sparkles sings her 'song' that brrr sound that mommy corrine loves so much.  When Sparkles looks up at you with that cute little face, you can't help but smile and believe that everything in the world is okay.
