(the 1st)
March evening. I carried the little devils inside my coat for the car ride home.
They were well adjusted, healthy little babies. They had grown-up under the watchful
eye of a German Shepherd and so they were use to dogs. They weren't the least bit put off
by my dog, Mari Jane. Their energy and intelligence amazed me! They loved to cuddle

out to me that everyone deals with loss in their own way and in their own time. Such a simple
statement held such truth and somehow I hadn't been able to see that for myself. Just because

my life. I know that I can never give back half of what I have received but, I will be their
champion for the rest of my life. I will do what I can.
much for *puppy* Frodo!
