i am so happy! this just makes me grin in a way that i haven't grinned in a few days. little toots have their ways of worming in our hearts and starting a healing process.......when we aren't looking...........

tippy's "dress" Apache Indian beaded collar is fastened on to my camera strap and he still goes with me to every rodeo, every landscape shooting, every portrait shoot........his "work" collar is fastened on the headboard of my bed..right by my pillow and i often touch it before sleep. sometimes at night, i hear his toenails on the wooden floors.......he's checking on me and the rest of us.

they never "go away".........love, pat
