Our Maggie girl had her spay surgery today. Poor thing is pretty pathetic right now. I almost cried with how sweet the boys were when we picked her up – they spotted her through the window before she came out. Now they're keeping vigil at her side (I'm sure she's thrilled. :). I've heard cute voices saying… "aaahhh, ma-ag-ie gur-l". Samuel "i'm so sorry Maggie – we just couldn't let you have puppies.". Caleb "it's ok sweet girl" and "mom, I don't like this!". Jacob Caleb has also told me that he doesn't think he could ever be a vet because 1. His allergies and 2. He doesn't think he could cut a dog open. Boys and their dog – it's a pretty special thing!

    Now that is pretty sweet.
    It must be interesting for the young gents to see that bundle of explosive energy brought so low, to be hurting and needful. Sounds like they’re learning the right lessons. Quite possibly, they’ve been raised right.

    Reilly is scheduled for her surgery on March 8…I’m open to any advice from one more experienced.
    Sure hope Maggie recovers quickly.

    That photo of Sam kissing Maggie should be framed. SO precious!

    so sweet – those collars are NO fun post-surgery for dogs and probably look kind of scary to kids as well.
    As a proud dog owner – trust me on this one – you will be GLAD Maggie is spayed for many reasons.
    Love all the pics but the one of Sam just captures it all.

    So cute – don’t tell Mark (luckily, he will never read these comments), but that picture of Sam and Maggie got me as close to wanting a dog as I’ve ever been. The boys’ cute quotes are adorable!
