Good morning my bonded DU family,

Every morning sometime between 4 and 7 am, I receive one of the most wonderful gifts a person can ever get; a greeting from Cuddles as I let him in after his night out on the prowl.
He comes in, eats, drinks and even before chasing Petunia with the last of his nightly exertions, he comes and lays down under my chin, getting his goatee bath for his head and neck for a solid five minutes. I feel our bond most strongly then, as it is his effort without any of mine that shows it.
All that to say, please have a day that's abundantly blessed with the gifts that those bonds offer us if we embrace them.
Love, John
