Half my life

In August of 2012, TJ, Pat and I loaded up our Volkswagen Passat in Idaho and drove all the way to Missouri.  We went to visit Jim and Jean.  Well, I thought we were just visiting.  TJ and Pat went off to explore the world and left me with Jim and Jean.  That was 3 years ago.  I miss TJ and Pat but I have a good life here with Jim and Jean.  They take good care of me and I help them do lots of work around here.  I lived with TJ and Pat for 3 years and now I have been with Jim and Jean for 3 years - half of my life.  I just know TJ and Pat will come and get me someday.
