Jenn (Al's favorite hygenist) always talks about her dogs. I asked her if those were her dogs, ( this is not something I do, I avoid conversation at all costs, hoping not to talk to people), She said the picture with the 2 dogs in it are her dogs. I said oh they are cute. Then she said "yup, that's CHERRY and MAISY". I said your dog's name is Maisy? She said "yup Cherry and Maisy". Me and Cass just looked at each other in amazement. Then she said, "I named her Maisy after Maisy the Mouse from the books." Now I started crying and me and Cass were looking at each other in complete awe.
I'm quite certain that Jenn doesn't have kids, she said she used to read Maisy books to a child she watched. And I don't think Maisy is too well known. So not only was it amazing that her dogs name is Maisy, but that she is named after maisy the Mouse, and that she told us without us asking why she named her Maisy
Al loved Maisy the Mouse so so so much. He loved the books he had almost every one and he loved to get a new one. And he had a mini Maisy stuffed mouse that he slept with every night and she went almost everywhere with him, Al said Maisy was his daughter.
And Alec loved cherries so much, he'd always ask, Are cherries in season?" because he loved them , but we could only get them in the summer.
And Jenn's other dog's name was Cherry.
Again another amazing sign from Al-- really amazing
