Friendships developed during COVID-19 feel especially precious. We are so lucky for this family.

Abigail
Cora loves to watch the show Spirit and es pet loves the little blonde character Abigail ‘who is always cheery and rides a paint horse who eats sugar.’ So, Cora has decided to cut off her hair, donate it, and style it to look like Abigail. She, of course, radiates beauty from her soul and I love the idea of less brushing. And, I’m proud of her for trying something new and being brave and different. She held her best friend, Scarlett’s, hand while it was cut off. And then she came home, wrote ‘Abigail’ on her white board and checked it off.
New Puppy
We surprised the kids with little Boris a few days ago. He has found a place in our home and our hearts and he is even working on finding a place next to Carly. He is one of nine puppies in his litter, and without competition for food at our house, he has plumped up quite a bit. He woke at 4am for the first few nights, needing to pee and play. But last night, he slept through to 6:30am, which was wonderful. We don't have much a system for him yet. He basically goes everywhere we go and he pees on his fake turf. The kids are so helpful with him, that we rarely have to do much of anything when they are home. I hope he is healthy and happy here. But, I sure miss Pig.
Cora
We told Cora that she made it into DLI today. She cried and then, with more words, she smiled. She is SO brave. She is always surprising me. I should t be surprised, but I am. Ever time.
Cold fingers and toes
Cora was pretty cold at ski school and now has her toes shoved in my heated gloves. W and I messed up our reservations and so got To grocery shop and walk the dogs before finally getting in a couple runs.
