....will never know they are even a dog!
I know many of you won't agree with that statement but for those of you who've had a pet that has snuggled close to you after you've had a hard day, wagged their tale off every time they see you come through the door, brought you their bone because it was all they had to give....then you understand how they become part of your family.
I completely realize that my Matti girl is spoiled rotten and totally ridiculous but she has seen me through some rough, lonely days of depression...she's made me laugh, she's made me feel less alone in an empty apartment, she's been my traveling buddy....she's my friend and my baby.
This sappy post brought to you for two reasons...#1 Matti is about to go stay with my sister for a month while I travel the globe and I miss her terribly just thinking about not seeing her for a month. #2 Some dear friends of mine who love their dog as much if not more than I do, lost their baby this week. My heart is broken for them and has really gotten me even more sentimental where Matti is concerned.
Here's a picture of "The Jada Bug"...we will miss you sweet Jada. Praying for you Parker and Ashley.

life lately...
Well summer time has arrived....my favorite time of the year I must add. I love all things summer! I haven't really blogged much because nothing really blog worthy is going on. This will be a catch all entry an attempt to let you know what I've been up to so far this summer.
There's been a trip to Dry Creek to speak at Girl's Opp with Kristen and Kellie...there has been my version of pool time (with and without friends)...there has been lots of grilling and eating watermelon. The latest adventure has been the purchase of a kayak. I haven't gotten it out yet but hopefully as soon as I get back from Uganda. Oh yeah....did I mention I am going back to Africa next week? I am leading another team for ISF to my Uganda for two glorious weeks and then after I return I will be going to the beach with the Chandlers. So I am pretty much going to be off work the whole month of July...GLORY! That's just a glimpse into my uneventful but fabulous summer.
