Dear Mitchell,
Before you were born, I was the baby of the family. Your mommy and daddy doted on me and loved on me all of the time! I wasn't quite so sure about you when they first brought you home..but you were so little and cute, so I stayed close to you as a protector. I followed Mommy up and down the stairs countless times in the middle of the night for feedings, just to make sure you were both under my watchful eye.

As you grow older, I'm starting to like you more and more. I ESPECIALLY like meal times! Thanks again for all of the scraps you "accidentally" drop on the floor, and those ones that you hand directly to me will remain our secret...eventhough I'm pretty sure I catch Mommy smiling when she sees that happening from the corner of her eye :)
"Let me try that tongue thing..."
I was REALLY jealous when Mommy started taking only you for walks and leaving me behind...doesn't she know I was here first?!?!? Luckily Daddy ordered that special leash and now we're back in business!
I have also begun to benefit from your new found independence. You LOVE to give me my scoops of food...and slip me some extra scoops when Mommy and Daddy aren't looking. They usually hear the food hit the bowl, but by then it's too late. Thanks for taking the fall for that one big guy! I mean, who can blame a dog for eating the food that's in his bowl?

Well, Mitchell, you too are about to learn what life is like with a new baby in the house. All of the sudden all of that time that used to be devoted to you, will now be split in half. Welcome to my world, buddy. At least I've been through it before, and will be here to show you the ropes. If we stick together, we'll be fine. If there's nothing else I've learned it's that Mommy and Daddy have enough love to go around. :)
Love, your loyal dog - Tex
