Duke, age 4

Hi! I was born in Louisiana. My dad picked me up when I was 9 weeks old. I was supposed to be a Christmas gift, but my dad couldn’t wait so I came a few days early. My favorite thing is to swim in our pool and pull on that long hose that has the sweepy thing on the end. My mom gets so frustrated when I pull it all the way across the pool and then drop it on the landing. I’m always so pooped after dragging that thing. My next favorite thing to do is “counter surf.” I have to wait until no one is in the room and then I hang 10. I love Shipley’s donuts left on the counter. The best part of my family is being able to sleep with my brother. He loves me most of all. He says I am a gift from Heaven. He kisses me A LOT. I love him too, so I let him. In my spare time I enjoy shredding paper products, retrieving and meeting new people.
