Evie’s Field Trip

Best girlfriends are exactly that - the best. Mine met up with me this morning for a belated birthday brunch. I said no presents, but they brought small thoughtful gifts anyway. Jen brought Jack a gift - a doggie cannoli and a toy hedgehog.  I’m glad she pointed out that it was a doggie cannoli, because it looked really yummy and I might have just eaten it without investigating in detail! 

I just gave Jack his treat. He spent several minutes enjoying it and licked every last crumb from his pillow.  I thought about how miserable, underfed, and sick he was only a month ago, how much his life and fortunes have changed. It is a hopeful thought.
