An old friend

Last night I cried my eyes out as we watched Marley and Me. I could not stop! I do not know why I was so incredibly emotional. It really is a good portrayal of how the kids win out over your treasured and beloved dog once they come along, but it was also such a good reminder of how faithful our old friend is. Roger has been with us for 9 years. We adopted him when he was 8 months old. He has been the best dog and last night I was reminded of how important he is in our family. I just wanted to cuddle up next to him and shower him with attention. He definitely does not get as much attention now as he used to, but we still adore him.

Oh, I love Roger too : ) I ran across the pictures we took of Buster, Roger and Liberty when I was cleaning the other day. Buster was such a little guy and was chewing on Roger's ear. I love my Buster boy and will probably need counseling when he is no longer here : ) I can't even bring myself to see Marley and Me!

Oh Roger! He can come over with Avery on Sunday if you want, Mojito and Franklin can commiserate with him.
