back on track!

I am back on track! Woo hoo!! Today I was pretty productive for my morning.. I did a couple loads of laundry and I folded all of my clean laundry so it felt good to get a little more done..

So it has been a while since I have talked about my kids.. so I think it is about due.  Let me talk about my bubba.  My Sammy boy is so sweet....he loves his sisters.  Every morning we have our routine, he wakes up first so I let him out of his cage and put him outside and then I will let the girls out when I get up.  Well when I let the girls outside he always meets them at the door and he will give them a little kiss as they walk outside.  It is pretty darn cute if I do say so myself.  As I sit here and write he is loving on his Marlee.  He is licking all on her mouth and she is just sitting there.  Now if he tried that on Izzy... well that wouldn't ever happen.. but Izzy would NOT just sit there and let him lick her. 
He has the sweetest little face.. he just melts my heart.  Now his sweet little face probably saved him when he was a puppy.  My husband was almost one click away from putting him for sale on craigslist but I begged and cried for him not to.  When Sammy was a baby he was being a puppy and explored a little too much in our spare bedroom.  Now the people who lived here before us didn't take care of the carpet so we needed to get it replaced anyways.  I just think Sammy was trying to help us out when he chewed a big hole in the carpet.  He also just wanted to match the other hole when he plucked the carpet to the pad in the living room.  He was just trying to be helpful :).  He was also trying to help my husband with the landscaping when he dug holes in the backyard! haha.  My helpful little boy! I am so glad my husband reached down deep and found any bit of patience he had left so we could keep my little boy.
When I think about what my life would be like now without him it makes me sad.  He is so funny and lovable that he puts a smile on my face.  Even when he knocks down decorations with his tail he makes me laugh because he is so clumsy.  I am very thankful for my kids and I will feel even more blessed when I have my own kids someday.  I know if I love my dogs this much now that when I have a kid of my own I will love it even more. 

the end....
