Good morning my DU family,

As crazy as it sounds, my three favorite times of day are:

1. When Cuddles comes to me every morning shortly after I let him in from his night's carousing and gives me 5-10 minutes of the most loving cuddles. Every single morning.

2. When Petunia joins me for an afternoon lay down by wrapping herself around my head and giving me a stereo purrformance until I fall asleep.

And 3. When I wake up and Shadow is curled up next to me as sound asleep as I was.

Please give us a day filled with opportunities to remind those nearest us how much we love them and treasure them in our lives.

The gift of love makes any day truly great!

Love, John

P.S. Cuddles is here for his special time.

to Scarlett coming to my side early morning for me to pet her long enough to fall into a sleep.
Also at night when she stays on the bed.
