1 May 2020

Cyber-Paw Pals,

Dad has been getting wistful on me with all this self isolation.  Today he is thinking about his pawrents..  Today would be their 73rd wedding anniversary.  It took Dad furever to remember their anniversary.  The family celebrated barkdays, Essex-mas and Easter, but their anniversary was not a major event growing up. 
Dad's Pawrents Wedding Day
Some how he normally called home, and his mom would remind him at the end of the call or in a letter later on.  After awhile he remembered the date.  They taught him a lot and he misses them both.

Now he talks to me.  I don't have the advice to give him.  I told him there is just a cold wet nose, a wet tongue and a waggy tail that I can give.  Dad smiled and told me that is more than enough.

Dog Speed,

Gemini

Our pets mean so much to us. Doesn't matter if it's a dog or cat, bunny rabbit, gerbil, rat or iguana. They bond with us and help us thru the hard times with the unconditional love they offer. Mom and dad sure do look dapper and happy. Their whole life lay ahead of them and the family to be. We were lucky to have them, God blessed us greatly!

Awwww, what a great photo of your grandpawents! I'm glad you're there, Gemini, so that your dad doesn't have to get wistful all by himself!
