You are the sweetest.
My Sgiobalta,
Of all the dogs of my life, you are the sweetest.
You cuddle,
you kiss my tears,
You bargain with me for treats,
You take me for walks and make dog snow angels.
Of all the dogs of my life, you are the sweetest.
You take yourself for a swim when you feel like it, just quietly paddling.
Sometimes I even call you Winter because you have generously welcomed that dog’s spirit to ride along with you.
I love you, Sgiobalta. Happy birthday.
I am grateful for everything that led to you being here, now.
Keep reminding me, Sweet Girl,
and may your days be good, and long on this earth.
