I had to sit on the floor to invite cuddles, but he finally came in and is now resting on his stinky blanket. To be completely honest, he was only out like that for a few minutes, but bless his heart he was trying so hard. The fosters called him "Sergeant" because he was bossy and protective of his siblings.

You cannot be brave unless you're afraid.

Being brave isn't the lack of fear. Being brave is acting despite fear.

Max is the bravest boy!
