A Festive Christmas Puppy

My time with Jack has been precious.  Whenever I'm away, I miss my puppy so very much.  When we're together, I carry him just about everywhere with me.  I took a few pictures of him the last few days.  I thought I would share them.  He's so cute.

The night I came home, I was a little worried that Jack wouldn't remember me.  After all, he's still young (a year and a half) and I had only seen him once in four months.  However, the moment he saw me, he leaped into my arms.  While I chatted with my parents on the couch about college and my life, Jack curled up in my lap and fell right asleep, just like old times.

He spent a few hours of the next afternoon sleeping on my bed while I recorded a few songs.  I spoke to him, but he could hardly keep those heavy eyelids open.

Whenever I'm up in my room, writing or playing the guitar, Jack enjoys sitting with me.  I think he's missed me about as much as I've missed him.  If I ever forget to bring him up with me, he'll sniff and scratch at my door until I let him in.  

A few days before Christmas, we took Jack to the groomer to get a haircut.  My dad said his bow was shameful, but I think it just might him look festive.  He's so photogenic.  It's like he knows I'm about to take a picture and he poses just right. 

I love taking pictures of Jack... almost as much as I love sharing them.
