Cold Night….

As the cold wind roared and the cold rain fell mixed with Ice the Old Guy covered up  Mom , kissing her forehead gently.  Crowded around her bed on the floor wrapped in blankets were slumbering collies whose feet were twitching, their ears twitching and some of them softly groaning as they slumbered deeply dreaming abut being petted and hugged.  The Old guy wrapped the blankets around each of the softly sighing collies who love blankets and covers and pillows.  He smiled as he listened to their soft breathing and felt the warmth radiating through the room from their warm bodies. The Collies were all happy!

The Collies make it no secret that the Old Guy is their favorite for playing and being loyal too, but they love their Mom who adores them and spoils them rotten.

But, now they were surrounding the bed of their beloved Mom and Dad whom they were protecting and being near to.  Usually loud, boisterous and very physical in their loving the collies become gentle and quiet when night comes to the Meadow.

So, as the Old Guy finished tucking them all in he went to bed and his  lil Hallie went with him as the wind roared outside and the ice cold rain fell.  The Old Guy covered them up and pulled the cover up to his head and said his prayers.  As he finished by thanking God, lil Hallie  placed her paws on his folded hands as if she was saying thank you also.  As they drifted off to sleep the Old Guy could hear the two collies groan and snuggle up closer as the ice beat against the window and he smiled and a hugged the collies and fell asleep.
