S A D D I

In the small apartment we stayed for too many years, i would go outside of the gate to work in the very small front yard.  SADDI stayed in the yard on the other side of the gate waiting for me.  To ensure i didn't go far, SADDI would stick her nose under the gate, about one inch gap.  i kept talking to her so she knew i was still there.  Foolishly i didn't take a picture of this, but it is forever imprinted in my precious cherished memories file that i hold within my heart and look through often.  When i finished and came back inside, SADDI acted as if i had been gone for hours.  Giving me the usual bark and sneeze, as if to tell me never to leave her again.
