At least you had a defense ready. That took some planning. I try to cheer him up. I am sorry I laughed. But the rooster crow was over the top. I share... this bit of wisdom with him.Nev gets her share of happy shouts and attention as do Catherine and Diana. But it is my hair that really shocks everyone.
