Attentive

Here is Mark with Sasha in Lucy and Rick's on Sunday night. Do you notice the attentive sitting? Mark has a pocket full of Bil Jak. We are all in serious training!

A good night. An excellent night. She went out around midnight and then about 4am -- who can remember exactly? Then up at 5:30. No mess in the crate! I will start adding this to my morning gratitude prayers -- along with wishes for all kinds of suffering!

It is still too dark to go to the park so am not sure how to keep her entertained in the house for a few more minutes.

This week looks pretty quiet. Wednesday we will have a consultation with a psychologist, a friend of my supervisor's. We need to "be on the same page" about what to do with Michael at this next transition. He will be home 2 weeks from yesterday. I got the recommendation from my supervisor who is an excellent clinician. Our question is really about how much "tough love" is called for. It's tricky because he is Mark's son and not mine, so it's much easier for me to lower the boom.
