JC's first Thanksgiving

Oh! Hello there! What's that you say? You would like to hear about JC's first thanksgiving? Did he eat the whole turkey? Let me finish my magazine and I will be right back to you...
The day started off reasonably well. Knowing the odds I was up against, my mother gave me a new bib commemorating the day.
Then the referees performed the weigh-in. I came in at 11 lbs while the turkey came in at 22 lbs. The weight difference, according to the experts will be nullified by my reach since the turkey's "arms" are tied together.
Despite the advantage in my reach, her bulk was too much for me. Within a few minutes I was on the mat having eaten only a tad more than my body weight. Knowing I wouldn't get up (I can't stand or walk yet), I played with my new toy car while the referee performed the ten count.



I may have been defeated in my first match, but my GGma doesn't care. Here she carries me from the ring like a champion.

Next year, I will eat the whole turkey.
