"Momma, I miss JC. When can he come back to visit?"--Seth
Seeing how sweet the boys are with dogs now inches me (very slowly...like at turtle speed) closer to wanting a dog of our own. JC came to visit for the day a month ago and Seth has talked about him a lot since. Out of the blue, he will mention that he misses JC and wants him to visit. He wrote Tante a letter today and in it told her that he wants to go to her house to see Josiah. And watching the boys chase Izzy and Maggie around at Memaw and Pepaws house is so much fun. Caleb spends a lot of time trying to get Izzy to let him pick her up and hold her. Poor Izzy. But it is really cute. Especially when he finally catches and cuddles her.
Okay, I have been strong for a long time and able to resist the pressure (mostly from my hubby) of bringing a four legged friend back into our family. Yes, I know that sounds mean, but I have a good list of reasons why we do not need a pet right now.
First, I said that once Seth was potty trained, we would discuss getting a dog.
That was two years ago. Still no dog.
Then it became, once we get a yard, we will discuss getting a dog.
Of course, now we are on the cusp of having a yard.
So, does that mean a dog is on the horizon?
I am still not sure I am sold on bringing another member into the family. It sure is a whole lot easier to "borrow" our friends dogs. I am not sure what my next argument will be. Or if there will be an argument at all.
I guess we will just have to wait and see.

Awwwwwww! You have to just love a furry face and all the hugs and smiles it brings to your boys (including the Biggest one)!!! You are welcome to have JC over to visit any time we can get our schedules to coincide!!! I know he loves you all as much as you love him! You were his FIRST family and hold a special place in his little doggie heart for sure!
