Morning of Surgery

December 4th is finally here. I have been waiting for this day for five months now. I have mixed emotions, part of me is so scared and the other part is excited for my munchkin to finally get her teeth fixed. I am trying not to let her see the worried side but I think she can sense it. Oh, did I mention that it is 4am and I am awake. I can't sleep.
One day when we were at one of our favorite places, Target, I asked her what was on our list to buy and she replied "new teeth, mine are all broken". That broke my heart. She is a beautiful girl with or without teeth.
She is my world and I pray she is safe and does well in surgery. I can't wait until noon, the surgery will be complete by then and we be very close to going home. This puts things in perspective and makes me realize how truly special life is and how blessed I am to have such a wonderful daughter.

LuLu, Lucy, Pupcake and Marley the dog

Well, I finally did it... I got Sophia a dog! It is a white Maltipoo and is no bigger than a bunny. I will have to admit, it is adorable and so far has not been as hard of work as I expected. Sophia has been great with taking it potty and being its "mommy". It is so neat to see her love and care for something so much, everytime she holds the puppy her eyes just light up and it makes whatever mishaps we might encounter all worth it. We cannot decide on a name which is why I have been referring to it as "puppy". I told Sophia she is in charge of naming it and so far she has come up with Lucy, LuLu, WuWu, Pupcake, Snow White and Tinker Bell. Those are all great names but it is a little boy, a little boy with a pink collar but it is still a little boy. I suggested Marley, Charlie, Max and Timmy and so far we have yet to come to an agreement so I told her whatever she chooses it will be but for now we call it puppy. I will upload pictures soon.
