What is it about a boy with his dog? James loves this puppy more than us sometimes I think. He runs to her the second we get home from school each day. They play in the backyard until it's time for dinner. He protects her from his little sister when she is too rough. He calls her up on the couch beside him while he watches tv. He tries to take on some of the responsibilities of feeding her and giving her water. He wants to walk her, but she is more likely to walk him. He is upset that he has a loft bed because Jetty can't get in his bed. There has even been talk of building a ramp so she can get to his bed. The best part is, she loves him just as much. So much that she practically tackles him to the ground everytime she sees him, even if he's only left the room to go to the bathroom. I love it, this unconditional love, it's really special. Watching them together reminds me to take time out for the little things in life.
