Thought for the night

Tonight I reached for Caleb and he turned his head toward me. I put my hand on his soft downy fur and he leaned his head into my hand. There was so much heat in his body. The vital and telling sign of life. My sweet little boy. Warm, soft. And loving.

It's why we like to touch. Our loved ones. Our friends. To feel that heat. That life.

I wish you heat my friends.

How brave of Caleb! He's learning to not just tolerate touch but to love it.

Well done you doggie-fixer you! :o)
