10 Good Things About Buddy

Christopher made a very difficult decison this morning. Everytime I have a loss I think of a book that we read when I was a kid: Ten Good Things About Barney.

These are my ten for Buddy:

1. He would come when he was called.
2. He sat in open windows and when the wind blew he closed his eyes and inhaled.
3. He found great hiding places.
4. He played with socks when Christopher would match them after doing laundry.
5. He sat on your lap when you were at the computer.
6. He would tap you with his paw when he wanted to be fed or loved, mostly fed.
7. He soaked up sun puddles.
8. He let Christopher rud his belly.
9. He was always home when Christopher needed a friend.
10. We loved him, and he let us.
