What is it about this little Miss Gidget? Just when I think she is a Buddha dog, she turns into this darling little fairy who had to help me in the garden this weekend.

She has these mystical, magical qualities about her that I find so endearing. Wherever I am, she is content to sit nearby and soak in the scenery around her.  While yes, I had her tied to the tiny shrub tree nearby, she didn’t seem to mind. She sat, good as could be in her spot watching birds land in the trees around her.

I swear a few times she was actually talking with the birds. It was just a feeling I had because she would sit so still, looking up at a bird sitting in the branch above her.

I’m surprised I even got my gardening done, because I was glancing her way so often. But it was so meditative, just being with her and Kylie (I posted a pic of the two of them “helping” me on Facebook).

By the end of the weekend, with so much activity outside, the little Fairy could hardly keep her eyes open, though she tried with all her might last night while John and I relaxed in the living room.

But pretty soon she could no longer fight it and off to sleep she went with the most content look on her face. A look that made this dog mom’s heart full up with love to know her little one is happy.
