My dogs know I am sick.
They sit at my feet and lick and lick and lick.
My chihuahua gets up on my lap
He puts his head on my leg and quietly takes a nap

My lab Mindy, she's a big girl
She lays at my feet watching me
She paced the halls while I was gone
But when I came home she did not jump up like she normally does
She walked with me to my seat on the couch
and brought me a blanket in her mouth

My dogs know that I am sick
And I am enjoying all of their love
Even if it is just for a little bit.
