Journal Prompt - October 5

Good morning!

Your journal prompt is below!

God bless,
Mrs. Murphy

Imagine you woke up one morning and your dog was up walking on two legs, talking,
and cooking breakfast.  You, on the other hand, were unable to talk and were walking
on your hands and knees.  What would you do?  How would you feel? 
How would life change for you and your family?
