Transcript:

Woodstock sits on a mound that hold numerous signs. They read,'This is Mother's Day', 'Mom?', 'Hey, Mom, where are you?'.<BR><BR> He sits next to Snoopy atop the doghouse. The latte thinks,"Maybe if you had a photograph or something."<BR><BR> He thinks,"You know what aggravates me?" He spreads his hands and continues,"It's the whole system that you birds have....no wonder you're unhappy!"<BR><BR> Snoopy continues,"Your mother and father build the nest, you guys are born, and then everyone leaves...."<BR><BR> He thinks,"That has to be the dumbest system I've ever heard of!" He raises his hands and thinks,"How are you going to find your mom? She could be almost anywhere!"<BR><BR> They jump down from atop the doghouse and Snoopy thinks,"I'll tell you what we'll do...if you can't find your mom, why don't we at least pay a little visit to the tree where you were born?"<BR><BR> As they walk along, he thinks,"It's called, 'Returning to the ol' Homestead'." He continues,"Maybe seeing the tree where you were born will make you feel a little better...."<BR><BR> Snoopy rolls his eyes and grimaces as Woodstock grabs him around the legs and starts sobbing, after looking at the tree which is now a stump. Snoopy thinks,"I can't stand it!"<BR><BR>
