Reading this did it for me:
Sitting in airport restaurant listening to a young couple FaceTime with their baby and his grandparents. It’s so adorable and they are obviously having serious separation anxiety on their trip. They are cooing and gushing and exclaiming “well look at YOU, big boy! So big! So handsome! Are you being so good for Nana???” Then one million questions for Nana about how the feeding and pooping are going, and a reminder about favorite blankies and toys. They ask to say goodbye to baby one last time, and they nearly collapse with joy when he’s back on the screen. “Mommy and Daddy love you! You are the best boy!! We’re coming home so soon!”
I’m literally crying into my latte because it’s so precious and I turn around to try and get a sneak peek at the baby on their FaceTime video.
It’s a yellow lab.

How adorable!!! We were not expecting that ending:) But we must admit that on occasion when someone has been watching our dogs we have called their names through the phone:)
Of course, they’re furbabies. 🙂
