Puppy Love

If you are an animal lover you can appreciate that I am referring to an actual puppy in the title.  I was sitting here wondering what to write about today and two of the cutest eyes looked up at me and I knew.  Everyday I start my day with the babies (you met them in an earlier post) Bearfoot, Mopsy,  and Shilo.  They have to snuggle with me in the morning for a few minutes before I get up.  When I come home they are waiting for me at the door.  They let me know how happy they are to see me, and that helps to melt away the trials of the day. They sit with me on the couch and comfort me, and all they ask in return is that I love them.  I think I can take that unconditional love for granted and probably seldom think about how much I need them and how much they mean to me.  The love is kinda of like when your children are babies and they just love being with you, close to you, that's all they need. It takes so little to make them happy and they give a lot in return. Sometimes loving them can be a challenge, when they need a bath, or they get into the trash and oh yeah when they keep you awake at night. But they accept all your faults without concern.  They never think you are fat or poor, ugly or sickly, they just think you are absolutely fabulous.....they make it easy when you are with them to bask in your own wonderfullness through their eyes.  I like and need the view from their eyes ...because its not always so great through mine.  So remember to return the favor once in a while and let them know how special they are, that would be a great New Years Resolution!
