Best way to Start your Day

I have decided that I like having a dog.  I like taking him out in the morning for a walk, and I enjoy our evening strolls, laughing at his antics when he tries to chase the toads and tree frogs.  I make the kids take him out during the day, but I have rather claimed the first and last walk of the day.

However, a serene walk is definitely ruined when you are half a block from home and realize your daughter is dashing after you in her pajamas, carrying the "puke bowl", shouting that she has just thrown up the tylenol you gave her.
