Spending Time

Spending time with a friend is something we all should do more of. So on this radiant afternoon I'm spending time with a friend. As I enjoy these breezes blowing my way, sitting on the patio with my best friend and companion looking down at her sitting as close as one could get to me, just now she looked up at me, with those beautiful brown eyes of hers, knowing some day won't have this time to spend with my dear friend, or to get her wet kisses or that wagging tail, from my dog Brandy, so will enjoy this magic moment, store it in my memory and loving each moment.

A lovely touching write on Brandy, James. As you say, we should treasure every moment - I have beautiful memories of our boys, Paddy and Nero

Ah, James, you had me fooled. Thought you were with a lady friend. Pets make great companions even though our time with them is limited by their short life spans. Enjoyed! Love, Carolyn
