Tiny Bubbles

Lucy is getting better at bath time. She lets me put her in the tub, and stands very still while I wash her. When it is time to dry off, we have a problem. For some reason, she won't let me dry her off anymore. I put towels in the dryer, run and get them, and cover her up so she won't get cold. She won't hear of it anymore. So Lucy walked around soaking wet, shaking all over everything for about 2 hrs. In this picture she is resting. She looks sad but she isn't. She drank water out of the gutter outside in the rain this morning, pulled bark off of fire wood mommy was cutting, and brings me her food dish when she is hungry. We also play this new game where she curls up by my head and stares at me. We then close our eyes and if I open mine and catch her looking at me, I quickly kiss her snout. If she catches me, she jams her wet puppy nose into my cheek (and sometimes my eye if she is not careful.) It is a fun game. Sometimes I forget that she is a dog. She is like a person, so full of games and a fun sense of adventure. She has been barking again. She barks to protect me from the vacuum, the military planes, mommy's chainsaw. She is so funny. I wish she would stay this age forever. June 7th, she will be one year old already.
