What a sad day. We lost our dog today. Polo ran after the mailman but instead of chasing this time got in front of the truck. Luckily, if that can be said, he passed instantly. I feel so badly for Reuben, as I know he loved that dog so much. It's not going to be the same around the house. The kids haven't quite clicked. Or maybe they have and they are just expressing in their own way. Nicolas wants another dog. I told him give us a little time. Giuliana wants to call the police. (You can tell she listens at school!) I feel something awful for the mailman. He was very upset. First thing I did was tell him over and over that it wasn't his fault. He knows how Polo loved to chase him. That was Polo's nature. He was stubborn and would run after anything and everything.


He was a good dog...and he'll very much be missed. We buried him in the backyard next on the fence line next to Solomon, his buddy, our cat. Now he's back with his friend.
