My Dog Has Daddy Issues

11.01.10

Meet Sophie. Sophie is a 3-year-old Yorkie who has Daddy issues. Sophie follows Daddy everywhere he goes. Unfortunately for Sophie, her love for Daddy is not always reciprocated. Sophie is too feminine of a dog for daddy. Daddy wanted a French Bulldog (I’m planning on getting him one eventually) but when his son was 18-months-old, he picked out picked out Sophie. Little man and Sophie have been best friends ever since. Now, Sophie and little princess are best buddies. Sophie can usually be found in the baby stroller with little princess pushing her. Funny thing is Daddy loves Sophie, but he won’t let you know it. When he gets home at midnight from work, Sophie is patiently waiting for him. As soon as she hears the doorknob turn, she’s at the front door wagging her stubby little tail for him. They hang out and have a midnight snack...

The Next Chapter

Wow, what a year. 2009 had it’s moments of ups and downs. This past year-and-a-half has been full of struggles. My husband lost his job twice due to the problematic financial industry. We have been living on limited funds and finding creative ways to make money stretch. But at the same time, I wouldn’t change anything. My beautiful daughter was born this year and she is such a blessing. If I changed anything it would affect the whole course of my life. I may not have my son or daughter. Both of my children were born during very difficult times in my life. I believe everything happens for a reason. I know that you have to go through a valley to reach the peak of a mountain. I realized that late one night when all my struggles and worries were keeping me up. Laying in my bed crying, I...
