Wait...
The words seep into my soul
Yes
100 reasons really did pay off
I’ve wanted a dog my whole life
And they finally gave me the answer I wanted
Yes
It takes a moment to sink in because they have been saying no forever
But finally they said yes!
That one moment when you have a beaming smile stretching from ear to ear
That one time when everything changes
The one time you have to wait
Choosing takes time
Here is my checklist
Toy poodle (has to be)
Any color
Teddy bear face
Hmm
I think that's all
No matches
No perfect dog
Nothing
But I can still get a dog
Right?
I browse for hours and hours for the one
AHA!
Gracie! The perfect match for our family
The cutest
Fluffiest
Most adorable toy poodle around
She had a teddy bear face (check)
She was a toy poodle (check)
She is a light gold sandy color
The most perfect match
Now all I need to do is wait
