Overcoming Obstacles. 01/02/09
They always say it’s about the little things. This is one of those little things.
When I first brought Jackson the pup home this past weekend, he spent a majority of his time slipping-and-sliding around the hardwood floors — running a marathon on ice. The stairs which acted as a natural barrier always interested him as he’d prop up on the first step on his front two legs and look upward curiously.
But as you can see in the picture to the right, Jackson is standing atop the three stairs which separate my living room (his play area) to the rest of the place – he had finally climbed up and down without falling or stopping – a big accomplishment.
Having a pup is a lot of work — even more than I had imagined. However, it’s the little things like yesterday that make it all worth it.
