Unconditional Love

As I look down at my lap I see the most precious 8 pound lump. She goes with me everywhere. My own personal shadow. My security blanket. We call her the baby even though she is the oldest in the house at 8. Her birthday was in February. She's no longer climbing stairs and has to be picked up to go upstairs when I go to my room or when it is time for bed. Her favorite place, of course, is wherever I'm at and especially my lap. She earned top puppy after Lily passed. She immediately stepped into her place the best she could. I try not to have a favorite but it is so hard to do when they just wiggle themselves into your heart . So much unconditional love.
