Dear Diary,
Yesterday it were so the stress-ful.
It were the first Steeler day! And I loves the Steelers! Mommy buys me a brand new Steeler shirt, but I wears it like a dress for many minutes until she can catch me and tie it up.
Then Mommy and Daddy tell me that all of mah friends gonna come over to watch Steelers and visit me! I get so excited that I get stuck in mah shirt. Oh, it are so embarrassing! And I make small scared noises while Mommy and Daddy tries to get me un-stuck. But they gives me all the peanut butter and pepperonis to helps me not cry, so that is good!
But then mah friends come over. And there so many beards in mah living room. And Mister Alex who I sees on the Face-book comes over, but his beard are so mah-jestic that I just cannot handles it. And Uncle Jon and Uncle Steve not have beards, but all the beards scares me too much to stay and see them.
So I hasta spend Steeler game in mah speshul tee-shirt in mah bed. And only Miss Arlene allowed to come visit with me, acause she a girl and she do not have a beard. And I still makes a little pee on the floor acause I scared, knowin all the beards in mah living room.
I haet beards. And I mad at the Pey-ton Man-ing, even though he do not have beard. I knows he must wants one. Haet.

Lucy, your instincts are good. We all hate the beardless Mr. Manning today. He probably can’t even grow a beard.
Maybe a doggie Kiesel Jersey will fix Luce’s fear of beards!
Love this idea!!

Lucy, you are still having problems from you past life. All Aunt Rona can tell you is be thankful you have the best Mommy & Daddy FOREVER. Lexi, who I brought into my home at age 9 years and now is an old gal of 13, still follows me EVERYWHERE, including the powder room. I must be within her sight or she hobbles (she has arthritis in her back legs and takes pills, like a good girl) to find me, even going up the steps and having to rest part way on the landing.
Granma came over yesterday, she is such a nice lady, who loves you also and little ole Piper, and Lexi & Barney sat here by the computer until Granma was done.
You are very special, Mommy & Daddy picked you and Morrowfield is your FOREVER home unless Daddy cuts a great movie or book deal and you could move to a palace and pick any room you want. Sooo, just know that men with beards in your house won’t EVER hurt, Mommy & Daddy won’t let them in again and you are in your FOREVER home.
Barney & Lexi send their love.
Aunt Rona
Oh Lucy, I sorry you so scared. But. I has to tells you. You look ridicorous in the shirt not made for doggies. We gotta has your mom bring over a shirt that fits and a shirt that needs fitted so we can make your undoggy shirt into a doggy shirt. Then you will be stylish and happy!
