I often bring my dog, Fisher lou , to work with me. He has developed quite a following at the store. One of his fans is a little girl who is developmentally delayed, who I will call Mickie. Mickie's mother purposely stops in on Tuesdays and Thursdays so her daughter and Fisher lou can visit for a minute or two. Today Fisher lou went home early and missed said appointment. I explained to Mickie that Fisher was not here today and apologized profusely. I assured her he would be here next Tuesday and as she left the store I told her I would let him know she had been asking for him. She thanked me as she went out the door and then called back over her shoulder "Please tell him I love him too!". That heartfelt remark from a little girl made her mother, me, and the customer who was at the register all break out in smiles and laughter.
