Ode to my baby... (for now)



As I speak, I sit at the computer with my pup beside me... her curled on top of my feet. Always has to be touching her mama. Who would have thought that you could become so attached to a fury creature?! But as I look back, I realized that we picked up Josey at the perfect time in our lives. A time when the baby situation isn't quite here. I look around me and marvel at how many people have their hands full with children, or are expecting one on the way. I get excited with them when the news is shared, babies are born, or their first step is taken, but as I sit here scratching behind Josey's ears, I realize how grateful I am to have her next to me. She is my side kick, my buddy, my companion, someone to hold when I cry, and someone who will always be waiting for me at the door. I think about this time in November for things I am grateful for, and I can't help but write how much I am grateful for this little ball of energy as she chews apart her stuffed animal. Thank you Josey for being so sweet! We sure love you in this little family.
