This morning Nana and Papa Smith came for a visit with their new mixed breed puppy, Hope. She is 3 1/2 months old, and is about 4 pounds......and so cute!! Hayden and Erica just loved her, and she and Oscar got along pretty well, too.
My Dad received Hope as a gift, after wanting a dog for years now. My mom was not so keen on the idea, but finally gave in-- knowing how much it would mean to my dad. As most of you know, my dad has gone through a lot in the last few years in his battle with Kidney Cancer. The puppy, he named Hope, for obvious reasons. And so far, she seems to have done exactly that....brought him some hope and brightened his days. For that we are all thankful.
