Happy 8th Birthday Sweet Jimmy Boy


Wanted--------------->Captured


WANTED



SUSPECT: HT: 12 inches. WT: 10.5 lbs

Distinguishing Marks: Spots on belly and back

Eye Color: Black

Hair Color: White


This fugitive is on the run, blitzing like nothing you have seen before. He is so quick he has eluded capture and enjoys taunting his {blind} owner by not coming to him when called; rather continues to lead the owner on a ring-around-the-rosies game of catch me if you can. But, alas, if cheese is presented, the subject is entranced in a glorious cheese spell. Be careful as this suspect can overpower you in just a snap with his puppy-dog eyes and drool (kisses) galore. Take extreme caution if you find him or else you will become his next victim........


...................................of pure 100% puppy love and 100% devotion.




CAPTURED!


The above-mentioned suspect has been captured by my heart and will always be my puppy prisoner of my heart!

Dear Owen, Ray, Gilbert, and Duncan~


I enjoyed being allowed the opportunity to create a birthday cake for your birthday celebrations. I hope you enjoy your special birthday celebration!!


Happy Birthday Kendall Boys!

A little determination and a subliminal message?

My sweet little puppy, all 10.5 lbs of him, is such an amazing little fella. The other day, I received a puppy sample treat in the mail. I gave Al (yea, short for Albert) his treat and he seemed to really enjoy it! As a result, I kept the coupon for future use. I had all my coupons in a stack on the floor beside my desk waiting to be filed. That's alright, right? Well, I left the room, and when I came back, that sweet {innocent} little puppy of mine left this for me..... **see the bite he took out of the coupon ---------^ Yep, he found this exact coupon amongst all the rest of them, and took a bite out of it. Would you say he liked the treat?

With Harmony

WITH SWEET HARMONY

Having worked in the nursery at church going on 12 years, I have been given the blessing of caring for so many beautiful children, some of which are now part of the 6th grade group of girls I am teaching :) Children are so special to me; I find it pure joy to care for and love on the little ones (and likewise as they grow up). Every now and then, I have had the opportunity to care for some of these children outside of church, in my home. How special is that? This past Wednesday night, I got to do just that. I had the opportunity to spend a little time with Harmony - a little girl that is precious beyond words. When we first met her in the nursery, the first thing most of us said was what a little doll; she looks just like a porcelain doll. Absolutely precious. Anyhow, I wanted to just take a moment to thank Harmony's dad and mom for trusting and for allowing me the blessing of caring for his precious daughter. She was and is such a joy to care for. And when caring for children, how can you not capture the moment in pictures...especially with Harmony.... Hello Miss Bright Eyes



Just me and my teddy bear



Nope, you can't see me. I am hiding.



Still can't see me...
