Sometimes it’s the little everyday things you don’t notice until one day you finally really see it. For instance, sitting here at my desk today, I looked down and saw blind-and-deaf Baron curled up in the round bed right next to me. It dawned on me that Baron is always in that bed, and that it has become his bed in the house. I don’t know when he selected it, but it’s been a while … and I just didn’t really notice the moment it became his favorite spot. No wonder he chose this — as you can see, the bed fits him perfectly, and even the color matches him pretty well!
When he’s not trying to play with one of the other characters, Baron is a quiet little guy, sleeping soundly in that bed. In fact, at nighttime when we’re emptying the house out for the final potty-break before putting the dogs up in the cottages, we often forget about Baron. Because he’s stone-deaf, he sleeps right through all the noise of the dogs trooping out of the house, the doors opening and closing, and Alayne and me calling to the laggards. We’ll get them all settled in the cottages, then look at each other and say, "Okay, who are we missing?"
Inevitably, it’s Baron, and one of us heads back into the house to get him. We’ll find him snug in his round bed, snoozing away, just like you see here.
