Anne you are in my prayers...


In memory of your fathers passing this I wrote for you,

The special bond and memories you shared will never let you be apart
Because they now are treasures tucked deep within your heart.
May the love of family and friends surround you and wrap you in its care
And know that you will always be in my thoughts and in my prayers.

I love you Anne!

Griffins Update


Went great! Griffin passed. The only somewhat mishap that happened, was when we took a walk with the trainer to see how he handled, there was some kids be VERY loud and obnoxious in the front yard of her neighbors house. There was a aluminum boat sitting out front and a metal truck cap, and the kids were jumping off the boat onto the truck cap. It went on for at least 20 min. The kids were very young like age 3 to 7. So he was preoccupied and wouldn't listen very well, but the trainer understood. We took him into the garage and he listened like and angel. He was such a good boy. Now we have to be observed three times with the therapy group. If he passes the three observations then he will be certified. Yipee!! He is on his way.

Griffins Big Day


Griffin has a big day on July 5th. I have made an appointment for him to take a test, if he passes this test, he will be on his way to be a certified Therapy dog. I am so excited. I am sure this will be something Griffin and I can both enjoy. I found out that there is a group of people that go to all the nursing homes and hospitals with in a certain mile range of were I live and visit a place once to twice a month and there dogs visit the patients. If Griffin passes we will to them become a member of this group. The other exciting thing it that my Grandma is going to share the enjoyment with me. I am so nervous for Griffins big day. If he knew about it I am sure he would be too...lol...
P.S. Mommy loves you Griffin I am sure you will do fine.
