Don’t let the sleeping puppy fool you…
Have you seen the movie Marley and Me?
Yesterday Riley had a Marley kind of a day.
We’d been warned that our good little puppy was going to begin to test boundaries. And he did. Let’s just say there was some counter-surfing-steak-snatching going on among other antics. *sigh*
In the middle of the chaos, when I wanted to be writing but I was catching a 50lb dog as he flew through the air off the couch, (THAT off command being the only one he obeyed all day) I may not have found him amusing. But as the boys and I laughed about it later, I felt sure that MUCH later I’ll be thanking the wee beastie for providing me with lots of very interesting and entertaining book ideas.
So, with mixed emotions about admitting it, I guess I have to say…thank you, Riley.
Do you have any “Marley” stories you want to share? All pets and kids are eligible for “Marley” status. Make me laugh folks…
