Three Months of Love

Yesterday marked three months that Martini has been a part of this family. Wow, that three months zoomed right by. Funny, now it feels like he has always been here, but I don’t take one minute of his being here for granted. Gotta put it all to memory to enjoy over and over.

He’s much more at home and comfortable these days than he was in the beginning. Now if we tease him with his toys, he’ll bark and show some healthy playful aggression. He wants to play tug of war and when he does he growls that little frustrated doggie growl.

Yesterday I was sitting on the carpet in the bedroom throwing his toys for him to fetch. He was playing and running his little legs off. At one point I threw the toy for him and he started to go fetch it but then he just stopped. He turned around wagging that little tail with his ears down and came running back to me, jumped in my lap, stood on his back legs and gave me a big doggie kiss right on my nose. That was a very special moment for both of us. I think it was a mutual toast of some sort to three months of having fun and feeling the love.
