A pile of Jack's writing came home last week, and this weekend, as I was going through and filing his work, I came upon this piece. My eyes welled up with tears. A month and a half after our puppy dogs moved, Jack was thinking of them during writing workshop at school. And this - his special ode to Cuddlebug and Gracie.
We're missing our puppy dogs very much this holiday season. They have ornaments on our tree. Do I keep them? Do I send them along? I found a box of the girlfriends' Christmas toys. I'm going to send these to our friend, Joe. And then there's the snow - oh, the snow. The puppies in the snow were always so adorable.
But there is still this: I know they are loved. I know they are happy. I know that Joe is happier. And I know that Jack is healthier.
