As my
brother so perfectly stated a few weeks ago, “life
is an adventure. We have experiences that evoke the best of emotions. We
cherish these experiences, smile, laugh, and enjoy the incredible life we live.”
This week we are feeling yet again thankful for the lives we get to live. Even
though we still think of Gracie everyday, we were given the opportunity to
expand our camp again. It just so happened that our wonderful breeder Alice
took back a young dog from a family whose situation changed and they felt their
work requirements were unfair to the dog. We knew in out hearts that this
little girl deserved a loving family home, one we knew we could provide.
So earlier this week we traveled to Savannah, gave Alice big
hugs, and returned with our newest family member. Her AKC name is Conventry
Farm’s Christmas Blessing, or Chrissy for short (Mom is also fond of her
nickname, Figgy Puddin). Though her name is Christmas Blessing, we are really
feeling like she is just a blessing in general. At 2 & ½ Chrissy is lively
and attentive and has brought a ray of sunshine into our home. Though she is
still adjusting to our home, she and Grady have bonded already and she has
already picked out her favorite spot to relax! It has been fun to see what
funny traits she has that are similar to the other Wheaties we have had. We
were a bit worried at first because Chrissy is one of Gracie’s daughters, but
alas no two dogs are ever the same, and each adds something different to our
family pack.
We look forward as the days progress to see what Chrissy brings
to our family and to keep you updated as we help her adjust to our home!
