Love Letters to Our Son: Day 3

Love of animals.  The funny thing about animals (especially dogs) is that they give of their love so willingly.  Earn their respect and earn a lifetime friend.  One of our best decisions was getting the pups. First, we picked Trojan who can best be described as timid but staunchly loyal.  Then came little Miss Mattie Mat'te, a sweetheart that loves everyone and everything.  Together, they have made our lives immeasurably better.

It's fun to watch them bark and chase each others.  And to watch them sleep is peaceful.  But our favorite activity is to go for long walks in the park.  The pups howl with excitement and prance with delight.  Fun to watch their pure joy.

I hope you too discover the wonderful treasures of an animal's love.  I really think you're going to love the girls.  There's a reason that dogs are known as Man's Best Friend.  The girls and us have often shared long solitary walks, all the while knowing that words cannot express the deep bond that we share.
