Friday's Letters

Pin It

This is a face of extreme exhaustion. No lie.
Dear Husband,   Thanks for taking pictures of me every time I ask. Even if we DO always get into "discussions" about who is a better picture taker (me).  Dear Tiny Initial Gold Necklace (which I have worn almost every day since Christmas), this week one of my nephews or nieces lost you forever.  There has been talk of toilets and flushing from the 2 year old.  I am devastated! Seriously. Dear Business, This week my mantra has been "stick to the plan. just keep going. give yourself time".  I am having to remind myself that things take time and to give myself a break every now and then! Dear Michigan, Could you maybe not rain for a portion of the day today?  Could you just stay sunny and pretty for my family session this evening? That would be great, so thanks.  Dear Husband,  Thank you so much for taking Bella to her first obedience class at Petsmart last night since I was meeting with the church worship team.  I loved seeing all the "tricks" Bella learned at class and also hear how you had to explain why a grown man had a tiny dog with a pink collar "ummm, this is my wife's dog...she picked her out...."  LOL.  Dear Blog, You have been teetering close to the 2000 mark and then less close to it (did I offend someone?) and now you are 4 little people away from getting there. Maybe today is the day, eh? Dear Blog Friends,  I hope everyone has a great weekend and I cannot wait until this blogging slump subsides and everyone is back in action!  P.S. I still haven't gotten my lab results from my rheumatologist but I will be sure to share the news here as soon as I do!

Over & Out,
A

  3. Obedience classes! That makes me think of Marley and Me (probably because I watched it the other day). You pup is so adorable. I bet that spunky little thing becomes top of the class!

  19. I laughed when I read about your husband taking Bella for obedience training. I already had my chihuahua, Bella, when my fiancé & I started dating 6+ years ago so he didn't have a choice. He has had so many instances of the last 6 years of being the guy walking the chihuahua with the pink leash. So brave I tell you! Of course, he loves her to death even if he never would have imagined having a chihuahua before dating me. And 2 years ago we rescued a lab mix puppy so now he has his 50lb rough playing dog....who the chihuahua bosses around of course! :) And don't worry, your business will grow. You take really beautiful pictures! Have a great weekend!

  20. Haha totally sounds like my husbands “reason” on why we own a tiny dog. If people only knew he loves and spoils Yogi like crazy!
    We are also planning on taking him to obedience school at pets smart.. he is getting out of control!
