See this cute little morsel? He's named Tux. 
But don't let his cute, furry, Ewok exterior deceive you.
But don't let his cute, furry, Ewok exterior deceive you. He is not even close to being potty trained. He is teething and likes to nip fingers and pant legs. He is attention hungry and whimpers until you play with him or hold him. He is tiny enough to squash with your big toe which leads to very precarious step-taking. And, he is living with us until his "mom" gets out of the hospital after some complications from surgery.
It's like having an Oreo that poops all over your house.
A cute Oreo.
And while we're having fun with sweet Tux, we are also relieved that we are merely pet sitters, not pet owners.
Praying for you, Dede...
*Incidentally, two days ago Claire made a wish by throwing a penny in a fountain, and said, "I wish, I wish, we could get a dog. So the next day, we were driving home after picking up the dog from the aforementioned family, and she said "My wish finally came true!" (But, don't worry, she knows this is temporary!)

"an oreo that poops all over your house" I laughed so hard and so loud Ian had to come over to see what I was laughing at. I am so glad you are blogging again. I love your writing. I hope Dede is okay. We will be thinking of her.
oh that's funny. I've clearly told shaun that I REFUSE to get a dog until someone in this house, other than me, is willing to pick up poop off the ground and take care of it b/c it won't be ME! I absolutely refuse to be responsible for one more person's personal habits in this house. Of course the topic of a dog never came up again. Good luck with your adorable but temporary oreo.
hahahaha, that's funny about Claire getting her wish. Build up that confidence and one day she'll be winning the lottery. (isn't that how the Secret works??).
