Lets be honest without my ladies I'm just a man they each bring something to this mix we call the family. But chief among them is the co-leader the
prime sub, she seems to have a knack of knowing when the doubts start to creep in to my mind. Last night I had trouble sleeping I went to the office and
sat in the chair in front of the fireplace sipping a drink and looking at the portrait of all the ladies with sir James for some reason I found myself looking at
jane and her collar she was sitting in his lap her head was held high her hand on his brow in a soothing way and a smile that said everything and yet
nothing at all. I had many things on my mind about the ranch the ladies me and how I was handling it all. I now know why he would sit here at the wee
hours of the morning and just sit to collect his thoughts about it all and he had all the other business on his mind. Just then lost in thought I did not hear
her come in she was just suddenly there her tiny body in my lap head on my shoulder hand on my face smoothing the lines taking the worry from me
talking softly she said you are not him you are you and we are learning your ways and your ways are making us whole again then she sat quietly and just
stayed quiet while nuzzling my neck. This is Mari the bringer of peace to the family she has her way with all of us.
