“Era indubbio, la vita senza un cane era più facile e immensamente più semplice. Potevamo andare via per il fine settimana senza dover prenotare il canile. Potevamo uscire a cena senza preoccuparci di quale cimelio di famiglia sarebbe stato in pericolo questa volta. I bambini potevano mangiare senza dover fare la guardia ai loro piatti. La pattumiera non doveva più essere posata sul balcone della cucina quando uscivamo. Potevamo di nuovo rilassarci e goderci il magnifico spettacolo di un bel temporale. Io apprezzavo soprattutto la libertà di muovermi per la casa senza una gigantesca calamita gialla incollata alle calcagna.
Eppure, come famiglia, ci mancava qualcosa.”

“Diabolical. You’re a scoundrel in tasteful athleisure wear.” 
I grinned and stretched my arms. “Isn’t this jacket cute? I really couldn’t pass it up.” 
“It’s adorable.” She sipped her tea. “You’re adorable. Cooper should eat you up. But I have two of you that are as stubborn as mules. How is even a certified busybody supposed to Hallmark-ending you two?”
