Tonight Reagan and I were cuddled in my bed, reading some books after her bath.
Raymond and Jennifer got her two books about a Golden Retriever for Christmas. We read them a lot around that time, but hadn't pulled them out in awhile. We decided to check them out again tonight.
We decided to read the Snow Dog, Go Dog one. In this particular story, Tinka, the dog, likes to run and play but he wanders too far away and gets lost. It ends happy, of course.
At the end though, Reagan looked at me with the SADDEST face and started to absolutely WAIL to the point where she was actually choking! I took her in the bathroom because I thought she might throw up. Once I got her calmed down, I asked her what was the matter, she said, "I didn't like when the dog got lost." My heart just melted! I explained to her that it was OK and his family found him and gave him his favorite toy. I showed her the picture at the end of the dog and boy all curled up sleeping. Then she was happy! That was the first time she really had a reaction to a story. It was heartbreaking but precious, too! Love our little peanut!
Here she is with her book!
