THE FIRST OF FIRSTS
In the darkness of the morning while the rain poured down around us, Mother, Father and little Raven left us and went far away. Raven said it was like traveling forever as she watched the raindrops dance on the windows of Father's car.
But then they arrived. And it felt like winter. It was windy and icy and oh so full of rain but Raven said it did not matter to her. She liked seeing all the different dogs all around her- crammed under each tent.
And the mud was orange and sandy too.
And when it was her turn to run through the raindrops, Raven took home a blue ribbon! First prize for her First real show.
We were so glad to see them come home, very cold and wet, but home nonetheless.
And then we were all together again and relaxing and playing on this cold cold day of firsts.
