Happy Father's Day!

It's Father's Day once again, and a time to remember and honor the special fathers in our lives.

Although my husband and I don't have children in the traditional sense of the word, we have always been privileged to have dogs as members of our family. . . .and I guess one could call them our four-legged kids. 

Our current dog family members are Harley and and Beau, two beautiful red fawn greyhounds, both "rescues."  Harley and Beau (with a little help from good ole "mom") decided to show their two-legged dad their appreciation on Father's Day by giving him a handmade card, specially designed for him.



That's 8-year old Harley's photo on the right of the card and almost-2-year old Beau's photo on the left.

Needless to say, my husband was quite touched by Harley's and Beau's thoughtfulness today.

On that note, I'd like to wish all the special fathers out there, whether they be fathers of the two- or four-legged genre,

a Happy Father's Day!

A Father's Day Card from Harley . . . .

Our sweet greyhound, Harley, surprised my husband Lee today with a lovely Father's Day card! (Well, if the truth be known . . .Harley did have a LITTLE help from me, good ol' mom. But, shhhhh! Don't tell Lee, 'cause he already thinks that Harley is quite a special, indeed, gifted dog!)


This is the card that Lee found this morning, before I even got up. It had been carefully packaged in an envelope with a pawprint drawn on the outside, and propped against the coffee pot on the counter, where Lee was sure to see it as he started his daily routine of making coffee.


And the inside . . . . . .


Needless to say, Lee was touched, and Harley got some extra hugs (and bacon bits) from him today!


Harley is pretty lucky to have a greyt dad like Lee . . . and he knows it!

I'd like to dedicate today's Blog post to all the other wonderful dads out there . .including those of you who are "dads" to furry family members like Harley.

And I would like to wish you all a

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
