Sweet Dreams

Dear Alpha Mommy,
I found these lights while you were decorating the tree. Do I look beautiful?
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
You are always beautiful sweetie, with or without lights.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
Decorating the tree is really exciting!

Dear Poppy,
I appreciate your help with it. But maybe it’s a little too much help.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
I didn’t mean to chew up the teddy bear ornament. That was an accident.

Dear Poppy,
It was a mess. It’s a good thing you didn’t swallow it.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
I don’t know how it got in my mouth. I just found it there.
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
I understand, sweetie. Maybe you can take a time-out in your basket for a while.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
Can I keep wearing the lights?
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
Sure. They make you look magical. Like fairy lights. Like you are having a beautiful dream.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
I love beautiful dreams!

We all love beautiful dreams. Beautiful dreams are the best kind to have.

Dear Alpha Mommy,
I have a lot of dreams.
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
You do! More often than any other dog I’ve ever known. You chirp and twitch and make little woofs in your sleep. Every night.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mommy,
Maybe now I’ll dream that I’m a dog running in fairy lights.
XOXO Poppy
Dear Poppy,
You are a dog with a halo.
Love, Carolyn
