Loved By Sophie

My cocker spaniel will be despondent tomorrow For I am returning to school for an eight hour day Worse, I made plans for the evening Sophie will curl up in my blankets, smelling me, Wishing I was here, until she falls asleep She has a little step stool to get up on the bed My husband will watch her while he works When I return home she will hopefully still love me And forgive me …..

She does now; for sure. She is "all about Mommy".

Caren, I am absolutely certain she will. Dogs have a way of forgetting those sad times. She'll greet you with her usual waggin tail,...yes!

She will be so excited when I return home today, but she will be irritated when I leave again tomorrow.
