Last weekend Dave and I drove to Montreal, QC and picked up our puppy Charlie!! We ended up picking 'makaw' for any of you wondering which puppy we decided on.
Also, he is named after Carlie Chaplin and his registered name is "Opus' Smile at Dobbit". Smile is the name of a Charlie Chaplin song which just seemed so appropriate given everything that happened with Audrey. I get so many feels when I hear this song.
Here are the lyrics if you're not familiar.
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through
for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile what’s the use of crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just
Smile
Charlie is the sweetest little thing and is such a sucker for cuddles. He is getting along with Bogart and Lucy wonderfully and he adores the farm. We couldn't have asked for anything better.
ps. Still missing Audrey terribly though.
Here's a few pictures of him...
