As of today Lily and I have been together for 8 years! I cannot believe that it has been that long, although I cannot really think of a time that she wasn't my girl. I remember the day that I got her, it was raining and the jerk-face that I was dating and I headed out to a pet fair to look at dogs. When we pulled up there was a small yellow/white dog not under the awning just being pitiful and getting wet. I wandered around looking at all of the other dogs, I didn't want to buy the first dog I saw (even though I was pretty sure that I wanted her). Eventually, we made it back to where she was and I asked about her and she was still available...
I reached in and pulled her out to see if we got along... and she peed on me. It was obviously love at first sight or first bowel movement. I remember leaning down to snuggle her and asking if her name was Lily and she nuzzled me after that. So I scooped her up and we departed into our lives together.

I cannot believe that we have been together for 8 years! We are about to depart for our third state to live in, hello Florida. I am so excited about our next adventure. I am so blessed to have found this lost puppy years ago, I cannot believe that I got so lucky to be her puppy-mom. She is incredible.

Being a dog-mom is best there is, I love that she is happy when I get home and is soooo excited. I love being her mom! I can't wait to see what the next years will bring and if she hates the ocean as much as I expect her to.
