A VERY SPECIAL STORY
Before the twins arrived our dog Blue had been staying with Mike's parents. It was quite tough for Mike and I because we love this dog dearly, but he was in good hands. During our stay at the hospital we had taken a baby blanket from each baby and sent it home for Blue to get familiar with the smell of the babies. We were told that while he slept with it in his kennel he smelt it, licked it, and chewed on it. A few days after being home with the twins we decided to let Blue come home. He was so calm and curious. We let him sniff both babies and a little lick here and there. When it came time to change and feed the babes they both started fuss and cry a bit. Blue sat and watched, sniffed the crying babies, and did something so sweet and surprising...he walked over to his kennel, pulled the baby blanket out and brought it over to us. ---And some people can't understand why we care about our dog sooooo much. Today goes out to our dog BLUE....WE LOVE YOU BLUE BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is soooo precious. We are also dog people. We did the same with our dog when Mason was born. Buddy would just leave the room when Mason used to cry. He just wanted nothing to do with the noise. He was always patient and gentle with Mason. Dogs are very smart animals. Sounds like Blue is a great dog. The kids will love growing up with him. I am so happy to hear that all of you are doing so well.
