Forgive me if I've already mentioned this here, but James has now told us THREE times "I really wish God would make a puppy for me!" Therefore, we are in limbo about the dog adoption situation. On the one hand, we've always said that we'd get a dog once one (or both) of our kids started asking for one and they were old enough to help with feeding duty. On the other hand, dogs are a LOT more work than cats are, not to mention the fact that Cora is still terrified of most dogs. We've broken the waters by talking about it and taking a trip to the local humane society, and we've all sat together looking at different dog breeds online. Only time will tell, but we are certainly closer to getting a dog for James this Christmas (or his birthday) than we expected to be, so we shall see...

| P.S. This is Molson and Barley. We got to take care of these sweet pups this weekend and James was more than happy to go along with me and make sure they ate their food and medicine and went potty and had fresh water. He particularly likes Molson. Probably because he's just a sweet old man. Decisions, decisions... |

You will have to give me your tips on how to get the kids to cooperate with training the dog. For us, 11,9,7,6 and 4 are still too young. They undo anything we teach him. They are totally runining the dog. Frustrating!!
