Two of the greatest
     Two of the greatest teachers in my life are my children.  My lovely daughter offered
a lesson today on the way home from school.  We have two dogs.  Both of our dogs are
always eager to escape at any given opportunity  I have to keep them chained and ruy
yard is fenced,so that I do not have to pay any fines for recovering them from the city
pound (狗收留所).
    This morning I made the silly mistake of waiting until the last possible minute to
put the dogs out.  As I was walking the first one out,the second rushed past rne
surprisingly and she was gone.
    I called for her to return,but my efforts were in vain.   I decided not to bail (保释)
her out if the puppy pound put her away.
    Anyway,when I picked my daughter up from school I just happened to mention
that Cady might be rnissing or if she has been caught by the K9 cops (警察),I will not
be paying her fines this time."
    "Why not?" my daughter demanded."Is it just the money?"
    "Well,partially it's the money.  But mostly it is because I am angry with her,I
insisted.  I noticed that my daughter had her head turned away from me and had not said
a single word for over 5 minutes.  So,I asked," Are you mad at me?"
    "Yes,I am.,She replied,looking at me with tears streaming down her face.
    I could not imagine that the thought of losing Cady would be so painful.  In my
imind I have given Cady.nice home with..abundance of food,good water,and even
her own doggy bed for over two years now.
    With tears welling up in my eyes,I heard my daughter's voice,"Dad,you just
don't understand.  If Cady is at the pound,no one will adopt her.  Who would pick
her?She is three years old and not even pretty like Casey." My heart softened.  I felt
sad for having been so callous .  As we pulled into the driveway ,there stood Cady in the
back yard,tail wagging and ready for some supper.  I will make every effort to prevent
any future escapes,
