Hello all, Finn here. Dad has given me control of the blog on Sophie's site so I can have some time to speak my mind and tell my side of the story. I live life as #2 chin, partly because I was the last one adopted by Dear ol' Dad and partly because my sister is Sophie May Chin. Being Sophie's brother can be a challenge, as I am always second in everything.
- Sophie gets the first chip in the bag
- Sophie gets her choice of plates for Chin dinner
- Sophie gets to ride on Dad when we both go on a ride
- Sophie gets to play with a toy first
- Sophie gets her own blog and more than her fair share of the internet
Don't get me wrong, this is a far better life than I was leading before I met Dad 15 months ago. Its just that, sometimes, a guy would like to be first.
After all, I am manly by nature. I protect May when we are out together. I've battle Loki to keep him away from OUR Chin dinner. I let her have the highest ground and, frankly, I put up with her stinking moods EVERY DAY OF MY LFE.
Contrary to a popular myth, I am not that dumb. NOBODY could be. To be that dumb you'd have to be, well, LOKI. I've learned my place in the house since I arrived here. I am clearly fourth dog in the house but second in the dog pack. Dad puts Chins ahead of any other dogs. He loves the Bitty, Bitty sleeps with him and naps behind him on the couch most nights but, she is just a dog. Sophie and I are Chin, so we get special treatment.
So don't cry for me Arch and Tina, I'm good being #2. Dad and I still have boys time in the mornings, he still takes me out to "drain my dude" more than the others get out. If I'm in trouble, like my foot getting stuck behind my ear or my foot tangled in the carpet at the top of the stairs, DAD is all about the Finnegan. I look at it this way, I'm like the backup quarterback on an NFL team. Should May get that big Hollywood acting gig she's always wanted, I'm ready to stand in as top Chin. I'm a heartbeat away from the big chair. Who knows, someday you might all be linking over to "Finnegan Around the World"! Hmmm, I do like the sound of that!
My best to you and yours,
H. Finnegan Chin
