Facts of Life...

(Rosie & Rachel in years gone by)

     Wanted to share a sweet Rachelism this morning...
     If you, personally know Rachel, you know Rosebug, our dog, is her "life" (her words). Last summer, we began discussing and reading about changes. Changes that occur as a girl becomes a young woman... Interesting to say the least! And that's pretty much all I will share about that. BUT....
      Yesterday, we were talking about Rosie. "Is she ever going to have puppies?..."  So, trying to be creative, but give her a picture she could understand.... I explained that Rosie's "nest" had been removed when she was young, so she would never have puppies. Quiet....Thinking...Quiet... "So, Rosie's eggs are gone?".... Yes....(Sigh of relief; she understands.)  Not!
    More silence & look of concern on Rachel's face... She began loving on Rosie, looking kind of concerned again.... Then she asked "Are there some very special birds watching over & caring for Rosie's eggs?" It was another innocent Aspie conversation, that I will probably remember forever. Smiles....
