Boo Boo

Something was missing, and I needed to discover what it was. One day while walking our dog, Music, I realized that we needed to find him a friend. I would pace with him in front of the glass windows, wondering if my husband would ever go for another addition to our perfect little pack. I saw her beautiful tail first. It was so fluffy and puffy! I knew she had to be a she. Would they get along, Music and her I mean. I started to imagine it and then I became obsessed! Everyday I would be excited to take him to see her. Would she still be there in the window? Did someone adopt her already? At first she would come up to the window and greet us by putting her little paws up and sliding down the glass. Back and forth she and Music would walk. Then out of the blue she just wasn't herself. All sad looking in the corner, she didn't even come over to say hi. I was concerned. She was just recovering from being spayed. It didn't last long, she was back to herself in no time. Soon, she was expecting us, and my heart began to expect her. I just couldn't stand it any more, and I know Music felt the same. We had to ask her to join our family, before someone else did, but how to get Daddy into the idea. Well, it was very easy, once he saw them together, through the glass. It was meant to be, and we three became four. Now I can't imagine life with out our beautiful long-haired calico.
