Rest Day

Mom took it easy today to rest up from taking the medicine and a tough work week.  She walked us with Dad in the morning.  Then Dad took her to the farmer's market in San Francisco.  They had lunch at a cool place in the Ferry building.  Then they came home, did some yard work and Mom took a long nap.  I slept with her on the bed to keep the cancer away so she can get better.

Dad cooked some really awesome New york steaks on the grill tonight.  Lou and I got fat trimmings which were divine.  It was good to see Mom eat dinner.

After Mom went to bed Dad cried really hard in the family room.  What's wrong with him?  His tears made Lou's fur wet, but Lou didn't care.  In fact, Lou seemed to want to make Dad feel better so he wagged his tail and licked Dad's reddened face.  Dad needs to pull it together because Mom needs him and Lou and I need him to be strong.  Dad is the rock of this family.  If he loses it, we will all be in a bad place.  I grunted when Dad came to snuggle me to let him know he needs to step up and be a man.
