The wait continues, as does the frustration. We keep telling ourselves we are "so close" but judging by Mark's guesstimate he believes we have a few months still!!! Gosh well I am praying for the call before my birthday, which is edging closer so watch this space!!
I am typing this with the new addition to our family sleeping on my lap. Lotti arrived yesterday after a mega flight journey across 3 states. Poor thing was so shattered when we picked her up, she laid eyes on us, not quite sure who these new faces were. But soon warmed to us and has impressed us with her affection already! Mark's comments last night were " she is the cutest dog I have ever seen". Trust me she totally is. She's a Lagotto Romagnolo, Italian Breed, hair rather than fur, hypo-allergenic, non-smelly, non-shedding, medium size, active dog great with children, loves cuddles, submissive to older dogs (Coco) and happy to run and play! Ticked all the boxes for us, and some! So we are bonding, and I feel like a fur mum again. Ruby was such a special dog for me and nothing will replace the 7.5 years we had together. But having another pup in my life helps me in more ways than one! She has brought a timely distraction to us....
Waiting time 19months 3 weeks…
