A Most Extraordinary Jollibee Party (Part 1)

When Joey asked Gabie if she’s coming to my party, Gabie replied, “Of course! I’m not about to miss the Jollibee Party of the Century!”

Zak’s birthday wish was for me to come alive and be a real rockstar. That day, being surrounded by cheering friends, I felt his wish come true.

Comments not posting? Uh-oh.

My human visitors seem to be experiencing difficulty leaving comments on my blog. I realized this glitch occurs when people post at the same time, and have asked Joey to fix it – or she gets fired. I hope this does not discourage you from leaving comments, as I appreciate them very much! Please don’t give up on me!

Thank you very much and sorry about the bugs!
