I had no idea you were going to be waiting for me in the backyard of my house when I arrived home considering our other puppy had just passed away. I had been at camp that following week and had come home to a four legged baby that I couldn’t take my eyes off of. You were so cute as you stood there staring at me.

You were the highlight of my last few weeks of summer. My bundle of joy that I knew would always be there to listen to all my secrets and would never tell.
