Reflections 9/25/2020: Roo has found his new hideout! I think he must have watched ET with us the other night to imagine this cave of incognito! (His eyebrows are a dead giveaway though!) Or he is channeling Koda whose favorite snoozing place was exactly this same spot in my closet! I guess it is the overwhelming scent of his Mommy! (Or the messy softness of clothes I was too lazy to hang up right away!) Bryn and I are taking a Mother/Daughter road trip to visit my sister Bonnie and my brother-in-love Todd, in Durango, so Roo and Ed will be batching it for a few days. Ed scheduled Roo’s first dock diving class in a local dog rehab pool, so they definitely will have some interesting guy bonding time! God, please comfort little Roo in my absence. Although he is not the total Mommy’s boy that Koda was, he does still cry his heart out when I leave for short periods of time… so 4 days could feel like forever to him. And give Ed extra love and patience with him as they mancave together in our home. Soooo excited for this time away with Bryn! At a horse ranch no less! With my sister! Can it get any better? And Roo, I will “phone home” often in our gut-wrenching separation!
