Musings: Already Seven Weeks!

December 15, 2017

Hi! Shelby here! I hope everyone has had a good week. I know it’s late, but hopefully not too late for me to tell you about my great week! Mom says we have to go to bed soon, so I need to make this quick!

Can you believe it has been seven weeks since I joined my forever family! Mom and Dad have been really busy this week. Mom went to work every day and finished up grading final papers and posting something called grades for the class she has been teaching since I arrived. Dad stayed busy remodeling the house, doing lots of painting, and the last two nights has been spending time writing messages in books. Mom told me Dad published a cool cookbook that contains all kinds of yummy recipes from the restaurant we use to own. I am hoping he will make one of the recipes for me! I’m told I eat all the time and when I am not eating, I am sleeping, playing, or you know, doing “other business”!

Dad also did something really cool this week, but he looked kind of funny with a hat that went down over his ears and he kept walking up and down and down and up on this ladder. We all stood at the doorway and watched, and now our house is all lit up with these beautiful white lights and there is even a reindeer. I tried to get the reindeer to chase with me, but he just wanted to stand gazing out over the new yard. Doesn’t he know that when you are in the front yard you should run and chase the squirrels!

I am pretty sure I am the most loved puppy ever! Mom lets me snuggle with her every morning and night, Dad has the best lap ever and I spend every evening with him, and my brothers and sisters are playing with me and at night they even let me sleep with them, even the cat! Although, I am thinking Mom and Dad need to get a bigger bed for us kids!

Mom was telling me next week, actually in five more days it is going to be a very special day for me, a day we will be celebrating! I wonder what day this will be?

Sweet dreams to all!!
