This past Saturday afternoon, I had a knock on my door. It was two of my little neighborhood urchins, come to pay me a visit. I recently lost my little companion dog of 16 years and he was the hit of the cul de sac. One of the little girls, Lila, was having a hard time making eye contact with me and I could tell she was sad because of our loss. She said, "Hi, Dewey. How are you? We drew you a picture.... wanna' come see?"
I said, "Sure, and I grabbed my cane and we went out to take a look at the new artwork in my driveway. I've always told them that my driveway was always available should they want to use it as their "canvas."
Here's what they drew. I'm a lucky man to have such wonderful neighbors. Their parents have done a remarkable job of raising such tender-hearted children..... and I made a special trip across the street to tell them so.
