PROOF...

...proof that I was capable of LOVING a dog...or at least
being so fearful that I once , in a misguided attempt at bribery,
gave my favorite teddy bear to AMBER so
that he no longer would jump up and try to lick me
all over.
Backyard when I was 4 or just turned 5 with little sis
Janice and our Aunt Alama Jacobs ( who, if you google find out
all sorts of great things she has done and is doing for the
great city of Penn..)

"MOM, know what would be neat? "
"What dear?"
"IF you put a fricking BOWL over my head and cut my hair all
around off"
'O.K dear!"
