Children vs Pets

A couple days ago my Aunt Linda sent us an article that made her think of us. She called to tell us it was on the way, and laughed at the thought of us reading it. She wouldn’t tell us much about it, but she said we would enjoy it.

I was so excited when I received the letter in the mail I could hardly wait to open it! It is a fairly short article, so it didn’t take me long to read. She was right. I laughed as hard as she did all the way through each word.

Now, for those of you who know Chris and I well, you know how much we adore our canine child, Chloe. Yes, you have received the pictures and you’ve heard all the stories…we spoil her like she is human. I thought it would be fitting to include a link to this article for you to read. And as you read it I am sure you will laugh as we did, and smile knowing that we are about to endure exactly what this author talks about when the new baby arrives….however, we promise to make every effort to keep her a close part of the family. After all, we think she will make a great “big sister!”

And just in case we fall short on that promise, Aunt Linda has reassured us that if indeed we find ourselves waiting without patience for that “Lassie Moment” she will come to Chloe’s rescue and adopt her! (Don’t count on it, Auntie!)
