Poppop,
Today is Mother's day, but that isn't the reason why I am writing. Today I am writing because something happened that I don't know how you would have reacted to. I can imagine your scowl as I tell you this and it only makes it all the more funny. Even though I know this is a serious matter, my dark sense of humor tells me otherwise.

Today Abby got bit by a dog. The owner was very kind and took responsibility like she should have. She let us in the house so we could sit as she took care of Abby's leg. What the owner didn't know was that the dog was still on the loose- as we all thought her son took care of it. A woman came to the door not 5 minutes after and started screaming at the owner "Your dog bit my son, I'm going to call the cops" and was really rude about the entire thing. That was the moment that I knew that everyone comes from very different places. I want to thank you for teaching me patience and to be kind even when I am under a stressful situation. –Anyways… So the cops came and two ambulances. I imagined you stepping out, frowning. But you didn't, Nelson did, Bob did, even Les did… But you didn't. I kept thinking to myself, I know these men, I know their names and their wives, I know how loving they are and how much they care, and then I thought of you. I really wanted to see you come out of the ambulance and promise Abby it would be okay. But you didn't. The owner looked so stressed through everything and tried so hard to keep a level head, but I could see she was struggling and I felt bad for her. Before Bob took us home I gave the owner a hug and told her that it would be okay. Something in me tells me that you would have been proud of this small action.

Mom and Abby went to the ER to get her rabies and tetanus shots, but I stayed behind. Too much excitement… I just wanted to tell you this small story because I know you would have had an interesting view on it. I don't know if you would have been angry at the owner or taken it light heartedly. I just know that I want to know how you would have reacted.

I love you bunches and know that you are probably scowling by now… I really miss your scowl.
