Reading My Book At Night

I'm ready to read to you Mama!






I enjoy reading at night if I'm not too tired to do so. Sometimes I think I'm reading, only to wake to my book falling on my face.  When Cooper sees me with my book he gets above my head on my pillow or between me and Jesse so I can pet him.

I like this time at night.  I cuddle with Cooper and read until I'm ready to go to sleep or until he gets up and goes into his own bed.  Sometimes I wish I didn't have to put him in his won bed.  Sometimes it's nice to keep him on the bed with me, but with the snakes, there is no room for that kind of thing.  Also, Cooper is so accustomed to going to his own bed that it's nice to listen to him relax when he settles in for the night.

For the time I do read and get to have him next to me, I can imagine him and me in the story.  Sometimes the feelings inspire an idea in me that may cause me to write a note on a scrap paper.  I have notes that will come together in just the right way and at just the right time someday.  Things are going to come together in telling Cooper's story like no other story ever told about a little white dog.  Wait and see.
