Looking for a Dog for Caleb
Caleb's convinced us that we need to revisit the idea of getting a dog soon. Everywhere we go he gravitates towards the dogs (and them to him) and he finds everything they do so fun and amusing! Yesterday at a graduation party he was feeding the big dog cookies and fruit. He's even taken to trying to elicit the same dog responses out of our cats, only to rush in saying "I need a band-aid". Cats just don't like to play rough :) So, here we go on our search for the "perfect dog"....
On a side note, I couldn't believe the changes I saw in comparing last years' grad parties to this year's parties. Caleb now rarely gets a second glance from being "different". He now blends in more and more with the other kids. Now, I think he may just pass for "quirky". It's kind of nice to be able to just let him play, and not have to worry that he's into something, bothering someone, or throwing a big fit. Thank you God for the little blessings!
