The New Member of Our Family
Meet Kiki, our new puppy...born today...the breeder just sent us a photo of her. Finally, Henry has bitten the bullet and allowed us to get one for Adam. As an only-child myself, I am ecstactic for Adam. I grew up with three dogs (at different points of my life) in my grandparent's home. I took care of them whole summers, saw them every weekend. While I know I will have a new "baby" to take care for the next thirteen years, I cannot be happier.
This makes me think of all that Adam has given me, including the courage to get a dog of our own. I think now of the lines my recent favourite children's book, You Are My I Love You, by Maryann Cusimano:
"I am your favorite book
you are my new lines
I am your night-light
you are my starshine
I am your lullaby
you are my peekaboo
I am your goodnight kiss
you are my I love you."

Awwwwww! Puppies are the best things in the world... well, almost.
Is it a black lab? I'm happy for Adam. I looooooooove dogs.
aw! so sweet! how lovely for you. our puppy is 7 months. having grown up with siblings, i so wanted that for fluffy. but beegu (the pup) is the closest thing he'll get to one. i hope they'll mean the world to each other as time goes by.
Puppy smell is almost as sweet as new baby smell.
Congratulations on the new baby girl!
Great picture.
