How Do You Tell A Dog His Owner Is Coming Home?


Roofus's owner (dad) is coming home to Utah.
How do you tell him?
Logan has been counting it down to him.
We tell him something great is happening on Friday.
We are preparing Colby's  room.

He has no idea until the car pulls in the garage and Colby sticks his head in the door.
Roofus wagged off his tail and "talked" and rushed to him.

It was a sight to see.  He's been gone since September and we have missed him so.
There was school to finish up in Washington and there was no other way to get it done.

Home to stay.  What a joy.  For all of us.
Colby's first meal home was lasagna and what did he say as he sat down to eat.....
"I have been waiting for this for 3 months!"



Attitude of gratitude:
~I am grateful for happy children talking together.
~ Today I am grateful for my sister who takes time to be with me and be my friend.
~ I am grateful for simple acts of kindness shown to me.
~ I am grateful that when Logan had a surprise game on Friday at 4, I was able to attend and Kim went by himself to help at the Ward Christmas Party.  We were both asked to help serve food at it, but when the game came up he went and worked double hard in my absence.
