It's Tough on a Dog

It’s Tough On A Dog
By Jean W. Sawtell

It’s tough on a dog when his boy grows up,
When he no longer romps and frolics like a pup.
It’s tough on a dog when his boy gets old,
When they no longer cuddle on his bed when it’s cold.
It’s tough on a dog when his boy gets tall,
When he’s off with the boys playing soccer and baseball.
They no longer paddle through the mud and the bog,
Hoping to find a stray turtle or frog.
They no longer run through the grass up to their knees,
Or roll in the pile of fresh fallen leaves.
It’s tough on a dog when his boy gets tall,
When he’s off to school, looking at girls in the hall.
It’s tough on a dog when he has work to do,
When he forgets to play as he used to.
It’s tough on a dog when instead of the woods or field or pond,
His boy becomes a man - and the man is gone.

There's Just Something About Boys


God has blessed me with 4 wonderful boys and a fantastic husband. Life is never dull to say the least. I have also found out that boys are very different from girls (what they do, how they think, etc.). I thought that I would start a blog about being the only girl living with a houseful of boys.
