Yet another story illustrating just how intelligent and loving these little ones are...


Last night I was eating popcorn, and one of those irritating little pieces of kernel shell went down the wrong pipe. It ended up at the back of my throat or in a sinus or something along those lines...verrrry uncomfortable. In an effort to clear it out I started making some pretty unflattering hacking noises. There were no other people in the house, so I didn't think twice about it. I Should have. Roxy, who had been sound asleep, came tearing into my room, up her stairs onto my bed, and got right in my face. She was extremely agitated, and gave me an incredible look that very clearly said, "What's WRONG PA? PLEASE be okay PA, PLEASE!" Of course I stopped the hacking but she was still staring and was actually shivering. So I said, "I'm okay girl, I'm okay". She immediately started licking my face uncontrollably and wagging her behind.

I love you too, Roxy!
