I toss and turn and rove in bed. I can smell Mama, I know she is close. I use my leg as a feeler and locate her. I keep my eyes closed and move toward her. I then climb onto her, go above and over and strategically place myself between Mama and Papa. With my mission... Continue Reading →
I am inclined to start off with a clichéd statement- Oh dear! How quickly the month has passed! I had hoped to make this a monthly feature, so here goes.

It is the most unlikely time for me to be typing a blog post- early morning. I decided to forgo my run. It is cold and cuddling with Zoe is far more appealing then getting into my tracks and braving the morning chill. I make the easy choice this morning. What is life, if I... Continue Reading →
Click to read earlier chapters. He knew he was awake. He knew it was morning. His brain had powered on, but hadn't 'booted to start' yet. He kept his eyes shut, and let his mind wander.
