So... A little over a year ago I had this bright idea that the Ford family needed a dog. I went on the hunt.... begged Ben... and finally got my way! My sister in law found us a sweet little boston terrier named Lexi. She was a sweetheart. House trained, stayed in the yard, and loved the girls!
After I got pregnant with Londyn and was super sick I noticed my patients with Lexi was thin and she started shedding a lot(i hate dog hair). It was too cold for her to be outside but I couldn't have her in the house because she was getting into everything.... she was in her kennel WAY too much :( The neighbors also got a new dog that barked ALL THE TIME... and Lexi started doing the same... we were not spending the time with her she deserved. We came to the tough decision to find a new home for her.
We found an AMAZING family for her... seriously it was a total God thing. The family LOVES dogs and already had another dog for her to play with... she is still doing well and I get to see pictures of her on facebook some times!
Here is the problem though... we sat the girls down and told them what was going on. They said goodbye to Lexi and were sad but seemed okay with it.
ITS BEEN OVER A YEAR PEOPLE... and the girls still talk about her ALL THE TIME!
Tenley drew a picture about the 5 things she is thankful for... mommy, daddy, nana, addy, and yep LEXI....
Then tonight Addy was drawing a picture and said it was her family! Note: the one in the middle isn't Londyn... it's LEXI!
Lord forgive me for scarring my children and giving away their dog...
