Every now and then I get a hankering for a pet. Fortunately I have a friend who was willing to loan me her dog. The kids were ecstatic. Hannah really wanted her (the dog) to play fetch. The dog was really not interested.
But she was always good for a snuggle. Unfortunately, she was a REALLY good dog and it made me want to just keep her. Jacob really wanted her to sleep in his room at night so we let him keep his door cracked in case she wanted to go in there (she didn't, but it made him hopeful). As soon as we got him in bed, he would start calling for her over and over again until about 3 minutes passed and he finally gave up. That is a long three minutes.
