Consider it pure joy, my friends, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

I can't believe we did this!


It was the fall of 2005.

Our last pet had passed away (still miss you Max).

We decided it was time to have a pool built and re-landscape our backyard.

I, being the picky perfectionist I can be, decided that we would NEVER have another pet.

I love my backyard by mostly I LOVE not have to pick up any pet mess, if you know what I mean. I also love not having to use a lint brush everyday before I leave my house for work.

But as you can see,
NEVER doesn't work and
perfectionism just needs to retire.


















Besides, how could I say NO to our son after he won all those ribbons last week.
So, meet Sammy, a 4 pound, 1 year old Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix.
Spoiled rotten already.
Sleeps in his new bed On Top of our son's bed.
I guess I'll be getting the lint brush out again:)
Considering Sammy with Joy,
Cindy
