Take time February 27

A Roxy-dog reminder that we should all take time to smell the flowers.

The two dogs had been doing what they usually do. Sleeping, then leaping up to slam into each other and try to snatch away whatever the other one has. This went on until I heard a loud yelp and Roxy came running into the room. She didn't come to me, but stopped by the tulips. Roxy stood there for a few seconds before touching one with her nose. She didn't try to eat them, but simply breathed in the scent After a minute, she seemed settled again and went back to lay down again. In times of stress .. we should all take time to breathe and smell the flowers.
