Dog

Found a dog today!!!  How funny.  Last week we were at the park in Delavan and Emma found a nice cell phone.  We took it to the police station so hopefully the rightful owner was found.  Then today, Wyatt found a dog.  He was outside doing some exercises for soccer and a cute little dog came walking down the street.  It had a collar and a leash on so we figured it had an owner nearby.  We have been praying for a dog or puppy for 12 years so the kids were pretty excited that maybe God was bringing one to us.  Sophie named it and started teaching it tricks.  The rest of us went knocking on some of the neighbors' door. After calling the police and the animal shelter we found the owner.  Interestingly enough he asked if we wanted to keep it.  Can you believe it?!?  He is looking for a nice home for this little guy.  I told him that Garth is not here and I could not make a decision like that without him.  Sophie said, "Mom, we could surprise Daddy!"  But I don't think that would be a great idea.

We have been praying for a dog like a lab that would be big and friendly with a wonderful temperament with kids.  This little guy was definitely friendly but we are not sure if he is the dog for us.

At dinner tonight the kids were telling my Dad this whole story and remarking on how we found a cell phone and now a puppy.  Sophie decided that she wants to find an Ipad next.  Hahaha!

Wouldn't that be a hoot?

Love you
