I don't know if you know that the French call their 'Baby' Bébé ou bien ici Bebe.... and more often than not the pets ARE the babies of their owners. i should know, i had pets (and kids!) this one IS lovely, Virginia
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

More than just a dog; these are always such great tributes.

This one is SO beautiful, Virginia. Lovely. And Sad.
Bébé looks like the Weimaraner we had for a while—difficult was definitely lovable. This is so sweet, V!
Great tribute to friends that shared our lives.Those who take them only for "animals" never knew how much love they can offer to us.
I like this tribute too V. It is nice to think of his/her best friend watching over.
