The Apple of My Eye!!

For the times when you begged for food with that in-born obedience which you carry.

For the times when you didn't utter a word when we, by mistake, left you alone in the balcony or in any room. You stood by the door patiently and waited for us to use our heads and open the door. God, you are so sweet.

For the days when you pooped in the house and hid behind curtains or doors or under the dining table etc after getting a good scold from Mother India or out of sheer embarrassment. Khi Khi

For the days when you ran to the balcony to see us off. Awww

And for the days when you begged to go down to play with your friends and felt sad when no one gave you the permission.

ILOVEYOUSOMUCH.

You have always melted our hearts and made us fall in love with you deeper and deeper with you super cute ways:

When you sleep on the bed like you are the king whilst I sit on the carpet staring at you enviously.

When you jump around like crazy with love and over-whelming affection on seeing me, papa, mumma or bhaiya or just any random person.

When you play hide and seek with me. You are good player, by the way.

When you do not make noise no matter what and people ask us whether you bark at all.

And when, instead of giving us some warning like your species do, you sleep like a drunk during an earthquake. :P

To the most adorable being of our house,

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY FRODO. You are a stupid lovely doggy. Period. <3

With Love

The girl whose Flip-flops you tore.
