A Boy and his Dog

         How cliche, right?  'A Boy and His Dog'.  ? 

          Daily, I ask myself.  "How did Kim know?"

          She picked this girl.  I didn't want a pup.  Not yet. Not so soon after losing Zona.
          And yet...she knew.  Picking Bella out of a 'line up', so to speak.  We went to many places...and suddenly, she decided.


          Cody, the quiet one...has benefited the most.  Bella adores this boy.  At bedtime, after we say good night to Kim, she proudly trots down the hallway, with nary a glance back, to sleep with her boy.
           After settling the little ones, I go to tell Cody good night and Bella is so crashed on his bed, so comfortable, while providing comfort - she doesn't even know.  Or, at least, she never lets on.  She has such character.  And gives the bambini so many smiles...I especially love Cody's smiles when they play together.

         

             Once again, I am thankful for all that we are blessed with...
