In March, Micah and I went out and got a new puppy without telling our kids where we were going. They thought we were going on our weekly date. Little did they know, we were out looking at puppies to see if we found one we liked.
Well, we did - and needless to say, we brought him home to the kids. When Micah and I arrived home and were holding a puppy in our arms, we told the kids, "look at what we found down the street. I think he is lost." We kept going on about how we needed to find the owners of this puppy because they were probably really missing him.
The kids kept saying, "I wish he was our puppy" and "he's so cute, don't you wish he was ours?" Well, after Micah and I played the story for a bit I finally looked at them and said, "He is our puppy." It took a while for the kids to actually believe he was ours.
Finally after a little convincing, Isaac looked at me with a huge smile across his face and said, "mom, this is better then Christmas." So take a peek at our video of him, and you will see what is better then Christmas. Smiles! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVoG_p1-u9k
