Puppy Recovery

Conversation with Winston, age 9, in the car:
"Do you and Daddy kiss alot?"
"What do you think, do we kiss alot?"
"Hmmm, yes kind of a lot. But you should kiss more.  Because I want a baby sister."
I have not been posting cute puppy pictures because Cuddles had pneumonia. He went from not drinking on his own to licking water off my friend's fingers to severe dehydration with his jaw locked.  At that point you have to pry open his jaw and dribble in water and chicken broth with his medicine dropper.  At one point I found him rigid on his back, which scared me to death, but he recovered. He is a trooper!  He was bright-eyed the whole time. 
He looked like a wet rat with the fur stuck to his face, but Tristan thought he looked cute. 
Two weeks went by with no visit from the tooth fairy, so Troy advised Tristan to write a note and leave it in the kitchen. The tooth fairy collects 300,000 teeth every night!
In judo class another child broke his leg while wrestling with Winston. He was on stage for the school play in his wheelchair. 
I had Winston write a get-well card and sent it by Whatsapp. 
My same puppy-whisperer friend loves violets. These were at school. 
Recovered!
