Living like Max….
If you know me….you know my Max!
I got one of those forwarded emails today from a friend. You know the ones that have the cute, posed pictures of pets doing all kinds of adorable things. You gotta say “awwww….how cute!” At the end of the email, it said something like “all I need to know I learned from my dog”. A statement that can quickly be passed over but really deserves more consideration.
“All I need to know, I learned from my dog”…technically, not so much! – but as I sit here with Max’s wide eyes eagerly staring at me, with his only desire to be loved, I realize what I’ve learned from Max may not be ALL I need to know….but it sure is a good start.
Wouldn’t you feel like a Rock Star if EVERY time you came home your family dove to the door…desperate to see you. As the mother of a teenage boy, I’m lucky if I get a grunt or a “oh so cool” nod as I pass through the house. I don’t care if Max is in the middle of bowl of Iams or if he’s napping on the couch…when I pull in the driveway the excitement begins!
Loyal….Loving….Laughable
Fun…Fiercly protective of Family…
So I say…Enjoy LIFE like Max enjoys a ride in the car.
Nap when necessary.
