It's late in YOUR DAY, but my Tucker insisted that I write for him to say *I think I love you, Gertie.*

Gertrude, you sound like quite a big personality packed into a little body! I'm glad you're living the good life!

It may be several days past Gertrude's "day," but her face and her owners' words still make me smile. Vapid wonder, indeed. What a great description of a simple dog. (I have one or two vapid wonders myself.)
Thanks for sharing.
