Mr. Paws

Oh my--what an abundance of gifts that I have been blessed to receive! For one, I am the proud owner and friend of a darling little four legged friend. He is a 10 week old Yorkie-poo puppy who is just a delight to have in my life! I've only had him for a few weeks, but already, it is hard to imagine life before he ever came along. He is a bundle of joy--black curly hair with a cute little white patch (tuft) just on top his head and a cute little white mustache and beard--a darling teddy bear face. He is all personality and only stands about 5 inches high and weighs in at a whopping 2 pounds 8 ounces--but don't think this little guy isn't full of vhim and vinegar! He is amazing! His favorite toy? A red matchbox car (lambrogini) and when you roll it to him, he rolls it back to you and plays the back and forth game for a time until he just can't stand it any longer--then grabs it up in his tiny little mouth and runs off to play with it on his own--making it roll and tossing it about like a giant with a toy car--well, think about it--he has to feel like he's bigger and stronger than Something! And oh, he's smart. Already he has figured out that he has to do his business on the newspapers by the back door and the ones near his kennel and he seldom messes anywhere he shouldn't. Tonight he made me proud--I took him over to my neighbor's house and took along a puppy pad and showed him where I placed it and told him if he needed to "go" that this would be the spot. Sure enough--not long after we were there, he strolled right over to his appointed spot and peed on his puppy pad and my neighbor was convinced that I have the smartest and cutest puppy in the world. (hee-hee--I already Know that!). He is so precious and so much fun company for me and oh, let me tell you--he loves, loves, loves kids--(my neices) took to them right off and he is such a sweet little guy. He loves to "talk" and to complain, but it's all an act--he's really a very happy and positive guy and his name? Why Positivity, of course. We call him "Mr. Paws" for short or "Paws" whenever we feel like it--but he is one very positive and fun little guy.

So many gifts have come into my life of late. I love my 86 year old neighbor and have been blessed with making a new and wonderful friend. She is a joy to know and I know that we were placed on this earth at this place and time to be one antoher's angels. She and I both feel a unique bond and we know how very precious and special it truly is. One day, I'll have to write about this sweet and amazing woman.
