Unfazed

Yesterday afternoon I accidentally forgot to flip the hand lock on our security door. I was walking down the stairs with Landon in my arms right as the mailman was coming up to the house. The dogs were barking and jumping up on the door and Bowen (the big guy) managed to hit the handle and much to his surprise the door opened. Needless to say the mailman was also surprised but somewhat less enthusiastic than Bowen about the turn of events. The dogs went out the door, mail went into the air, and the mailman took of the other direction. Without really thinking I charged out the door, jumped over our little planter, tackled the big dog and pinned him to the ground. Amazingly I did all this with Landon in one arm (the football hold works pretty well). Perhaps even more amazing is that Landon wasn't the slightest bit upset by all of this and he even seemed a little amused by it all.
