I admit it. I'm a complete sucker for a cute animal no matter how hard I try to deny it. The morning ritual around our house is for Mom (me) to get up at the crack of dawn and make breakfast for the offspring (as we affectionately refer to our daughter). But first there is the dog. He won't let me fall back to sleep on the couch because he must curl up on his favorite cushion and my feet would be in the way. He will share, but I mustn't stretch out. The cat creeps half way down the stairs to check on the morning ritual of dog-couch-sleep-deprived-woman, but she wisely never ventures all the way down to the living room. She positions herself just in Jack's line of sight, so that he is driven crazy with anticipation that she might come down and play with him...she might...

What a great photo! It looks like such a peaceful scene, I'm envious (my morning routine does NOT look like this). This photo makes me want to run up there and give Jack a teensy little kiss on the nose. That's the thing in my family--we love giving little top-of-the-nose kisses to our puppies. Whenever I hang up with my parents I say, "Don't forget to give Arlo a little kiss on the baby brown nose for me."
ReplyDeleteAww, this blog makes me want to get a dog.
