One for You. One for Me.

One for You.  One for Me.

We received a very nice surprise this weekend.  GMKeri, Uncle Dave and Mali Boo stopped by for a quick one night visit.  This would be the first time Mali has ever stayed over at our house and I was beyond excited to see how the boys would react to having her around.  See, I’m a dog person.  Always have been, always will be.  Dennis is not.  So, when it comes to whether or not we should raise a dog on top of two toddlers we are always butting heads.  

Michael was in love with Mali the second he saw her.  William?  Not so much.  He slowly warmed up to her and by the end of their visit he was infatuated.  They played.  They shared a meal together- pancakes, of course!  William would take a bite and then gently pass one to Mali.  We’ve really been working on this sharing stuff around these parts.  And, when they had to go both boys cried as Mali’s car pulled away.  Now, all Michael says when he wakes up is, “The puppy here today?”  No, Michael, but you should go ask Daddy if we can get one.  How can Daddy resist that?  I’m evil.  Pure evil.  What can I say, I've always been a dog person.
