Meet Moxxi!

This is Moxxi! She came to be part of our family about 2 weeks ago. One of the assistant principals at school found her outside the school and decided to bring her inside and clean her up. I heard a rumor that there was a puppy in the school and immediately went in search of her! When I saw her, I could not believe how cute she was! I sent a picture to Thomas asking if he wanted a new dog. His response: "duh." 

A student had expressed interest in taking the unnamed puppy home, saying that her parents said it was okay. I told the teacher who was housing her that I would take the puppy if that fell through. After school, I saw the student who was going to take the puppy home and she told me that her mom said "nope!" I found a ribbon, tied it around the dogs neck and took her outside before loading her in my car.

When we got home, Barli was completely unsure about this new dog! The new puppy was afraid and didn't want to be away from me. Libby, needless to say, stayed WAY far away! When Thomas got home from work, we started brainstorming names for "Puppy Number 2." We settled on Moxxi.

The next morning, I took Moxxi to the vet to have her checked out and get her first set of shots. They told me she was about 12 weeks old and she weighed 16 pounds. She's been a part of our family for almost 3 weeks now. I think Barli is loving having someone to play with while we are at work. They always come inside when we get home and crash on the couch! I'm so glad that I brought home that sweet puppy <3

Long Time No See

Hey y'all! Sorry it has taken me so long to write again. I have been so incredibly busy! Thank You, Jesus, for these next 5 days off school!! I desperately needed them (and so did the students!). I have so many things on my mind right now. I feel like making a list. Lists calm me down and help me feel like I have slightly more control than I really do. 

  • I love looking at stars and finding ones that I remember from taking astronomy in college. Tonight I found Venus and it comforted me. I guess it made me feel better because I know that I am not alone in this crazy universe. God created so much more than what we can see or even fathom. Here's the picture I took of Venus. 
  • 3 years ago today I found my princess kitty. I can't believe that she is 4 years old! 
  • We don't know Libby's or Barli's exact birth dates. I decided that the day I found Libby (November 26) would be her birthday. When we got Barli, we decided to make her birthday the same day as Libby's. We know Barli was born sometime in November, so November 26 sounded good! haha
  • Teaching is the hardest thing I've ever done. Like ever. I don't know how people do it for 30+ years.
  • I really, really, really love being married. It's like having a sleep over with my best friend every night. I am so glad that I found someone who I can share silence with.
