Small steps

We walked to support our friend little Molly and the FAREwell to Food Allergy campaign this afternoon.  Tuck arrived with a pocket full of acorns and an energetic spirit -- he had to get rid of the tree nuts, but held on tight to his enthusiasm.  We passed discarded pistachio shells at one spot and a pile of sunflower seeds under a park bench, and we had to steer clear of bees and wasps along the route.  We reminisced about Colby's grass allergy, and how although it wasn't life threatening, it sure was a painful inconvenience for a dog who liked to play outside.  We recognized that there are allergens all around us, and felt glad we didn't have to give them much thought.  Tuck left after a solid high five with his friend, and with, I do believe, a little more compassion in his heart.

  1. Jenni Baby,

    If Tucker puked, I'm betting it was NOT a food allergy...
    it was because his mom was swinging him around like a crazy lady!
