Our sweet girl


Today we went to see the movie "Marley and me". From a previous post you can see I loved the book. The movie did not disappoint and leaving the theater, tears streaming down my face, I was quick to observe I was not alone, everyone leaving the theater was crying. Even my son, who I warned before going in was crying. We are a house with a tight canine bond-long before my son was born, we introduced our sweet girl Oreo to the family. Our four legged baby, quickly won over our hearts always there in the good and bad- tail wagging ready to love unconditionally. When our son was born she became a second mother, standing Gard at his bedroom quick to wake us when he stirred, she never minded being his step stool so he could climb onto the couch. She like any dog loves long walks especially at the ocean, but her favorite activity is snow ball fights. She loves family snow ball fights at 10 years old she still will fly through the air trying to catch them ,it is like watching a child play in snow for the first time. I am thankful for our canine family member, thankful for her devotion, her love, and the lessons she unknowingly teaches us on a daily basis.
