Puppy Love
I am generally a person that likes to have many photos on my pages, but once in awhile you capture a photo that deserves it's own special page. This is one of those photos. Willow hadn't been feeling well and had been sick off and on with a fever for about 10 days. She had been sleeping and trying to get better and her puppy was generally close by. Puddy has always liked Willow, but they weren't always close. Anyway, in recent weeks they have gotten to be better friends and as you can see, it has really grown into a special love. Willow calls Puddy her 'puppy brother' and it is nice to see them loving each other and Puddy taking care of Willow while she gets better.

NO CLASS TONIGHT
My apologies, but there is maintenance going on the server that generally hosts the classroom tonight and I am unable to open it.
