| Solomon...we refer to him
as our "old soul"...at age 3, he possesses a wisdom that comes with age
and experience. He loves to play outside, slapping through rivers, running
through high grass or prancing through snow, keenly aware of the world
around him and appreciative of a bright sunny day. The arrival of his step-sister
Logan 7 months ago has only added to his enjoyment of these things. Logan
teases Solomon unmercifully, and he remains playful and patient always.
From the beginning, Solomon has taken quite a role in Logan's rearing.
One of the first nights we had her, she was in her crate, and she began
to cry. Wanting to do things right, Rick and I laid still, hoping she would
nod off quickly. Within minutes, Solomon let out one quick, firm bark that
seemed to say "Enough!" That was the end of that...she hasn't made a peep
since! |
