"Big Chief Little Dog"

Our old dog died today. He would have been 14 in December.

The girls are content with the idea L.D. is in heaven now. After we said our goodbyes, Mark started to fill in the dirt and Caroline says to Addison, "That's just his body, Addie. The real L.D. is in heaven."

Kids are definitely given to us to learn from.

Good dog, L.D.

'But Mom!'

Caroline had been busy for about 3 days playing in her room and making a mess in the process. I finally asked her to please try to clean it up. "I can't do it by myself!" she whined. I said, "I'm pretty sure you picked up your room by yourself the other day and did a good job!"

"But Mom! That was only a medium sized mess!"
