My Gift

I'm outside with the puppy & he's refusing to leave the patio.  

He's laying down staring at a corner of the yard...not afraid...just curious, watching something.

In my mind when I looked at that corner I saw the outline of people gathered.  Some were just standing around & others were like pacing or walking about.

I'm not afraid because I know they are my family.  But I am frustrated....because their presence is stopping the puppy from going potty, which when we were inside he indicated that he needed to do; which is why I brought him outside.
