I had known I was going to be a Dad for a few weeks now. And I had been happy about it from the start. But it had been a distant concept, we couldn’t talk about it to anyone else. Ayla and I daydreamed about our pup. We made plans, thought about names, and decided we would honor the tradition of naming your pup after one of the important Elders in your life.

Where everyone and their mother could see you. Which hardly ever was a problem, it is just one of the things that comes with pack living. Let alone in the castle that’s our pack house as well.

I was about to pick it up to move it to a half–empty dresser drawer when the cute wolf onesie Jessa got us caught my eye. In about six months from now, I would have my son or daughter in my arms wearing this

No doubt my tipsy state had something to do with how much the idea of being able to hold my pup in my arms in six months affected me. It was a genuine. happiness though, it just came in raw and unfiltered and I liked it.
