Neige @ the park

Neige the Maltese was born during the year of the dog. We took this lil white fluff ball home on a really cold winter day, on the way home she slept so peacefully so we named her "Neige" as in Snow White in French. She was so small she could fit inside a shoe box, but now she's bigger than her Mom and Dad.

She has since enlightened our lives, and filled it every single day with love. How can such a small thing give so much love I wonder? I found my answer, she must be an angel.

She looks the most beautiful when running at full speed against the wind, I am certain one day she'll break the speed of light. As any woman would, she complains a lot by giving this teddy bear-like sound, and despite being graceful and really quiet, she really likes to bite stuff around, she would bite me to death if she could...

I look forward to wake up everyday with her, the first step to our morning ritual begin with her sleeping on me and licking my face (60X/morning), so I wake up full of happiness every morning. I feel bless to have such a wonderful companion.
