A Milo perspective


I returned from the beach with my mama yesterday. She and I stayed at my grandma's overnight. Mama always promises me that she won't leave me ... but I know better! Like today.

She slipped out this door to go grocery shopping, she said. We didn't need any more food ... I have plenty! So I sat by the door waiting.









Finally my grandma opened the door for me.


Better! I can now see where she is going. Oh no maybe not. I don't see her.












Oh, there she is in the black car driving away! Away from me. Can't she tell that I am not in the front seat with her?














I finally got Grandma to take me out. Gone!! But I could smell her. I know if I could just go down to the curb, she might be waiting there for me.












I am waiting.

Waiting, and waiting.

I know she was here because I still catch her scent. (She smells soooo good! Just like a mama should.)

Why would she go away without me?

I am just going to sit right here and wait.


Waiting, waiting, waiting.





Still no mama!



Sigh.









I am at the curb! She is not here.

Waiting!












Still waiting!
















Ok, so Grandma let's go in. She has left us both!













Let me check just one more time.


















Grandma is a good couch buddy, but I sure wish mama was here!













YEAH! She is home, home home!!!!













I so love my hugs!














And those kisses, I so need my kisses.



But what I need more than anything, is my mama!

And, she came back. I knew she would. It was Grandma that was so worried!



I never doubted my mom!

Frenchie Mom - he lives a dog life. They always live in-wait for their owners. Always!

He lives a pretty good life because he has his grandma - but I can never replace you ... even your dad commented that Milo doesn't have the same attachment to me that the other 2 dogs have.

Oh my goodness! That'll be Dotty when I leave her at the kennel Wednesday afternoon.
What a sweet photo essay.
