HI! I'm Sissie!!!

I am between 12 and 14 years old.

My mom says that I'm a little firecracker.
That's because I'm assertive.
I shake my head, twirl and bark until I am noticed.

Did you notice that
I have very sweet eyes:

Yeah, yeah, yeah...
so my tongue hangs out to the side.
Can't be helped.
My teeth are missing on that side!
A polite person wouldn't notice.

I like to hang out with my daddy:

But, I REALLY like to hang out with mommy:

I am really, really tiny.
I weigh 5 pounds, 7 ounces.
Look at my head in mommy's hand:

When my foster mommy got me,
I only weighed 3 pounds.
I was skin and bones, but I am better now.
I like my food. In fact, I demand it!

Mommy was worried that I might be
bossed around by the other girls.

Yeah, right.

The first time Molly got in my face,
I stalked her for three feet.
Then I jumped in HER face
and yapped a couple of times.

Molly didn't know what was happening.

The next time I had to tell her what-for,
she hid behind Mommy.

We don't have trouble anymore.

As I said, I'm assertive!

I really, really like it when my daddy rubs my back.
