Charlie

Charlie, my first baby boy
so furry and lovable.

So content with just sitting on the front step with me
while I scratch your ears.

You have been a constant companion
when all others are just too busy.

Never in a pissy mood, too tired, or dont feel good.
You're just always happy to have me around.


I love watching your crazy antics..
The way you feverishly dig up an old bone,
only to enjoy its tastiness for a minute,
then nervously find a secret spot to hide it again just in case..

The way you eat all the good stuff out of your bowl
and somehow manage to spit the pieces of dry boring dog food back out on the floor.
How do you do that?

Your slobbery kisses never get old.

You're concern for my emotional state puts me at ease.
Always having to come and look if I'm crying or just sniffling from a running nose.

It pains me to think you could be half through your life already.



I just don't know what I will do without you someday...

I love you,
y
