Today we celebrate all the amazing dads out there, in every form. This extends to all pet dads who are so special. Merlot & Sherlock are lucky to have Russell as their human daddy. We also remember the fathers who are no longer with us. Their love and memories continue to live on in our hearts 💕
This past week was good although rather rainy and cool. I was tempted to write that we haven't had the best Summer so far but to be fair, Summer starts today 😏 We had torrential rain yesterday, combined with thunderstorms, which caused floods in many areas. Thinking of all those who are dealing with the aftermath of those floods.
The rain has created the perfect conditions for the grass to grow quickly... Russell had to cut it twice in four days. Our perennials are also thriving, they seem bigger than ever.
Merlot is away at Myriam's making babies. He should be home in a few days. Meanwhile, Sherlock is enjoying the one on one attention although he misses his buddy. I've been keeping him busy with some enrichment games. He quite enjoys the "find it" game now, which he didn't care for when I first introduced it to the boys. It's such an easy game to play, anywhere in the house at any time of day, and provides good mental stimulation.
The sun is shining now, which is a nice change. It's been so gloomy the past few days but as Russell so well said yesterday morning, Sherlock is our ray of sunshine 🌞 Our boy is also bullet proof when it comes to thunder. Both are actually, which is a good thing.
That's my blog for today. To all dads, enjoy your special day! Have a great week everyone!
