I just spent a few minutes early today writing down the back story to how we ended up with Lola, but it felt a little too drawn out so I regrouped. What I really want to remember about this little creature, this seemingly small animal that has stolen our hearts and become not only a member of our family, but a huge part of our lives, is this….

Reasons we love Lola

01) She sleeps all day. Really, this is not an exaggeration. She pretty much sleeps until the girls get home from school rotating between my room, the living room and outside. At 3pm she will muster up enough strength to play with the girls for a bit and goes back to sleep. It’s endearing.

02) There is always someone there to welcome you home. I can’t tell you what it does to your mood to be greeted home with such delight — she is so excited to have you back.

03) She protects us. It has been nice, especially with Adam traveling so often, to not only have her company, but to help us feel safe.

04) One of my most favorite things about her, something I only dared hope for, but wasn’t sure I’d get — she poos in the bushes. No one ever has to worry about walking on the grass in our backyard, she does her business where it can’t be seen. Doctors recommend taking viagra 100mg mastercard downtownsault.org almost an hour before sexual activity. In short, these levitra overnight delivery drugs are being seen more as a boon especially those, who for long had been taunted by their spouses.

Ingredients used in Kamdeepak capsules reduce viagra uk online side effects of medicines used in the treatment of high blood pressure and prevents onset of loss of libido. It’s awesome!

05) When I asked Megan what she loves about Lola she said, “her chubbiness.

06) She loves cheese and peanut butter so Tess can give her all of her portions.

07) She does not bark.

08) She can’t go for walks. I say can’t instead of won’t because she loves to walk, loves to leave the house and explore with us, but she can only go so far. The problem is once you’re out she doesn’t have the strength to come back home.

09) Adam said, “I love that she’s so gentle and loving. She just wants to be close to you.” Yes that is definitely the case with him. While she does love the rest of us she isn’t aware of anyone else when Adam’s in the room. He is definitely the alpha.

10) Last, but not least, she really does bring us together as a family. Adam and I were talking before bed the other night about how much more joy there has been in our home, how we seem to gather together more since she’s been around. She certainly adds something that we didn’t have before, we can’t really pin point it, but there is definitely more love here.
