You are amazing, Maryellen. I know I could never foster a dog – I mean look at me now, I have 5 doggies now. I wouldn’t give up any of them, I’m with Nate.
Nate is a pretty smart little guy, knows just how to get to you. Love those boys.

Either that or she’s right and we’ll all be dead by morning.” I gave the man some food and watched as he skillfully lured her in with it. Before too long, Willow was sitting on his lap snuggling up to him like a long-lost lover. “Traitor!” I thought to myself. Part of me jealous, the other part relieved. This couple had just lost their dog of 17 years. They needed to be healed just as much as Willow did. Just as we needed it a year ago when we lost Dublin and adopted Wickette. [...]

That is remarkably gross and funny at the same time. I was really cracking up at Robert explaining to you what would be on the wand for each dead animal he found!
