Christmas II update

Christmas II was very enjoyable. It was good catching up with my sister and her family and getting to spend a decent amount of time with them.
Willow and Glyn have very different approaches to dealing with toddlers. Willow tries to pretend they don't exist unless they are carrying either food or toys, whereas Glyn (who we are fostering for a bit longer) seems to be very intrigued by them! I think the different behaviour and noises that children make interests him. He is very patient and allows Lily (my niece who is 2 1/2) to grab his tail or ears without objection. I am quite amazed as he is also alot more gentle around them, and as he is a very engertic 2yr old dog normally, the difference is notable. Willow is far less tolerant, which is probably a combination of her age (9 in February) and general natural grumpiness!
