FIFTEEN YEARS AND EIGHT WHOLE MONTHS

I am fifteen years and eight months old now. I don't feel much different except that I take the time to listen to the world and breathe in all it's glorious scents. Even though my  eyes are not as sharp as they used to, I see everything with a calm presence. I am old. Very old. I know. I watch the Littles run around frantically  and I know they won't listen to me until they become me. Slow down. Relax. Listen and enjoy. I am so much older than Mia's new puppies.  They are  growing and walking and hearing and seeing, just like me.
 
It is funny I think, that the beginning and the end is nearly the same.

But for now I think I will nap. Or ask for a chewing bone?

I have the  whole day to decide.
I love my life.
May your days be filled with peace my friends...

OH! SO MANY TOWELS ON THE FLOOR!

The rains are unending these days and the towels on the floor catching leaks from the skylights and catching muddy wet puppy paws are unending too. Father gives us treats and dries us off but there is not much else to do in these dreary days. I try to keep Dusty calm and happy but we are all wet and sad for the weather. Dusty keeps asking Mother when the skies will stop crying. But I don't think  it will stop any time soon.   May your days be filled with peace my friends...

THE DAY OF DEAFENING QUIET

It all happened so fast. We did not know, I did not know. No one really knew but Souris knew. She knew it was her time to run free and find her Moula.                                                       My name is Arabella Castellabate . I am Souris sister by association. I am named after my Mum's grandfather's town in Italy. I am Mother to eleven puppies including Izzy, Mia and Raven. Mia is actually related to Souris. It is with a broken heart that I take the reins of the blog from Souris. I hope I can honour her with my writing. It was just like any other morning though it was raining still. Mother gave us chewing bones before she went to school. Souris wrote her blog and slept on all the rugs that Mum and Dad put on the ...

MARGOT'S BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

Image
It seemed like any other chilly morning with the sun shining bright but then in came little Margot and her mother -Auntie Julie. It was Margot's first birthday and she wanted to spend it with us. But first she had to run all around the back garden to explore because it was quite some time since her last visit. She had her birthday bandana around her neck and a smile from ear to ear as she greeted each one of us. We  chatted with Auntie too. Inside, in the warmth of the kitchen, we gathered around to see Margot get her gift. We all wanted to see the card as well because it was Mum who wrote in it. Margot took one of her presents and ran all over the house. Mia inspected the toy after Auntie took the tags away, We all took part in the play. But then- the two besties: Margot and Dusty went on an adventure together. They went to Winky's together, It was a day to meet Santa and go shopping and Margot got an extra toy  octopus for her birthday! Dusty greeted every puppy and every pe...
