Happy Birthday Cody!

It's this dude's birthday today. This guy trusts like a child, loves unconditionally, and is doing his part to make saints out of sinners. He has proved doctors, psychologists  and educators wrong, beat the odds more times than I care to remember, and has touched the heart of each person that is lucky enough to know him, while at the same time, tested every fiber of their patience. Gosh, I love him! 

Happy 34th Birthday Cody!

Matthew and Ruger

This is how Katelyn and Matt found Ruger this morning...
staring at the bed, just waiting for them to wake up.  

Golden Retriever Puppy

Like an art form, I create boards on Pinterest so I can save things that inspire me. Therefore, I have created recipe, home decor, and holiday boards, along with boards regarding subjects that I am passionate about...for example: Autism, Multiple Sclerosis, Coca-Cola, Disneyland and Puppies! My daughter, Katelyn, was quick to inform me that she didn't think I needed a puppy board, to which I rebutted, "Yes I do!" 

It didn't take long for Katelyn to come to her senses. Now that she is married, Katelyn has her own "puppy" board on Pinterest and, even more recently, she and her husband have become parents to their own living, breathing, adorable Golden Retriever puppy. 

Meet Ruger!

And yes, I am blogging about Ruger just so I can pin him on my "Mom! You Don't Need a Puppy Board." Wanna bet that Katelyn ends up pinning him on her "puppy" board too?
