Saying Cheese

About once a day Emily will say something that I will turn over and over in my head.

Approximately a month ago we were lying in bed reading on a weeknight. Emily asked if I was going to invite our dog Poncho to sleep in the bed, as I am wont to do. I said I would when I finished the chapter in the book I was reading. It was quiet for like ten seconds and then she said, "You know Poncho's life is pretty short. It's important we make him as happy as we can."

I thought it was a nice thought. Both for Poncho and for us.
