Let’s Call it a Hoof

20080415w Can you tell what this is? Well, let me give you a hint, it causes giggles wherever it goes, leaves hair on anything it even passes NEAR, can’t pass up a free meal, and watches over all of us whether we know it or not. This is another member of our family. Her name is Lulu and she is a Rhodesian Ridgeback. That’s her big ole’ hoof up there all cozied up on her new bed. She follows my boys wherever they go, and never wants to be without at least one of us, and did I mention, she’s is the most gorgeous girl?!?

20080415 (1) And while I’m convinced that it will plainly say on my tombstone, “she cleaned up dog hair”, I’ve loved almost every single one of the moments she has been with us for the last year. The moment that she ate an entire chicken off my counter, and every time she sticks her nose in someone’s bum, those are the very few moments I could do without. So, counter-surfing, dog-hair spreading, butt-sniffing aside, she is the sweetest and most beautiful girl that lives in this house. How can I possible compete with those big brown eyes??
