I think I love him more and\nmore with having times apart from him. I always go to the station with Mum to\ncollect him. We have a routine and I understand how it all works. This time\nthey\u2019d changed the platform his train was coming in to and I just didn\u2019t know\nwhich way to look to make sure I saw him first. I kept swivelling my head left\nand right not wanting to risk missing him. It\u2019s not fair as Mum is taller than\nme so she said \u2018I can see him\u2019 long before I could. Once I got my paws on him\nit was wonderful and I hugged and kissed him as much as any dog could. So much\nso that lots of people were stopping and looking at us and saying how lovely it\nwas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Decisions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As time goes by and I realise how much I need to make the most\nof the times that Dad is here, some decisions get harder. There were a couple of\ntimes where he was in one room and Mum then was going upstairs and I had to decide\nwhether to stay with him or go with Mum. There was one point I just couldn\u2019t\nmake my mind up. First of all I started to follow Mum and then I changed my\nmind and stayed back with Dad. Then thought I should have gone with Mum as she\u2019s\nuseless on her own so ran after her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cuddles in bed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best bit about Dad being here is getting back into bed with him when Mum goes for a shower in the morning. Before Mum went into the shower she took our photo together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_0009-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_0009-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_0009.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When she came out we were still cuddled up so she took another one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_0011-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_0011-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_0011.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I think we\u2019d probably both have stayed there all day if Mum hadn\u2019t insisted we get up.
