Day 19:
Mom:
Today I am thankful for our latest family member, Bella Michelle Stark, or just Bella for short. After losing our first dog, Hippo, whom we had for so many years it was kind of an adjustment to have a puppy all of a sudden in our lives. She is pretty much the complete opposite of what Hippo was, she's very friendly to others, loves to play, and loves toys...which Hippo in her old age cared for none of that :). She is also a puppy, which comes with it potty training, learning not to jump up on everyone, not destroying everything in the house including the kids' toys, and keeping her from biting the kids when she gets excited. We are still working on a lot of that puppy stuff, she is slowly getting better. You can't help to love the way she snores when she sleeps, how she has to be right next to you when she chews on her bones, the way she waits by the door or window until you get home, how excited she gets when you give her a treat, and how she loves playing with the kiddos. Bella has stolen all of our hearts and she is definitely apart of our family now!

And what I am most thankful for with Bella right now...she hasn't touched any of my Christmas decorations...even when being left home alone with them! I just had images of whole trees being destroyed because of one little puppy. I knew I loved her :).
