A boy and his dog

Poor old Chloe girl. She is our million dollar bionic dog. She has 2 synthetic knees and bad hips and elbows. She is the best dog in the world though. I feel bad that she doesn't get the attention she deserves. I can't wait until it is warmer and we can go out together. She doesn't know any tricks other than, "Lay There." That is is our inside joke, because literally she finds her spot she wants and just stays. However, now with two young ones in the house, she often hears sayings such has, "Beep Beep!" "Chloe, get up. Get out of here!", "Chloe, you are in my way." "Get off of my bean bag." Poor old girl just wants to be where we are. She just turned 12. Although, I admit, she seems much much older. She has had a rough life in terms of health issues, but she is pretty spoiled on the inside.
On days when I lie down at night and am not even sure I have petted her, I am reminded that she is at least shown some affection by someone...even if it is not what she bargained for.

G loves to love on his "Co-key", as he calls her.
What is it about a boy and his dog...oh, and his trains???

I am not sure about the picture of him sitting on her, but the bottom one is absolutely precious!!! His look of absolute love is priceless! Our almost 12 year old four legged baby, Murphy, would have bit Jemma's leg off if she tried to sit on her. Jemma and Murphy have a love/hate relationship. Murphy hates when Jemma gets all in her face, and loves when she is eating dinner and drops stuff all over the floor. It is so hard to see Murphy getting older. I adore our "first" baby! Chloe is lucky to have so much love!

Just a glimspe...

I wish you all could see what I wake up to each morning. Every day is a
gift. Here is a glimpse of the little blessings we have been given.
