Calm & Quiet

We have a neighbor who is a nurse and often works long shifts.  On her long days she asks us to check in on her puppies, Jack & Molly (remember the dog from the Halloween pictures...that's Molly)  Usually this is a welcome distraction and Paige and the puppies run each other to exhaustion.  They can be loud and hyper puppies, especially if they've been locked in the basement for 9-10 hours.  So today we go over and the puppies seem especially hyper and yappy.  And Paige was just not into them.  So I'm trying to keep Paige happy and help the puppies get some energy out, when Paige decides to pull some toys out.  She gets a slinky and turns to me and says, "I want to play with something calm and quiet."  It just killed me.  Way to be subtle Paige.
