Photo Friday 2017 ~ Week 3

I still haven't gotten in the swing of things for this Photo Friday project, so once again these photos were taken just a few minutes ago.  My girl looks sad in them and that's because she is. We have been looking for a dog for her for a few months now and it seems like every time we come close to getting one it falls through. It happened again yesterday when we found a cute little yorkie on Craigslist and were in contact with the owners about meeting him and they all of a sudden just stopped responding to us.  I don't get it.  I don't know why they won't just tell us they found someone else or they change their minds for some reason instead of just ignoring us.   My girl had her hopes up because this one really seemed like a good fit for us, but obviously it wasn't meant to be.  Learning to wait on God's timing is hard for an adult, so it's especially hard for her to learn as a kid, but I know in the right time we will get the little doggy that is meant for us.  We are all learning important life lessons but that doesn't make it any less hard.  Hopefully soon we'll have a little dog to love on, in the meantime pray that we would find the perfect one for our family and we learn to lean on Him in the waiting!

This pretty much sums up their relationship right now. He's still enamored with his big sis and wants to play with her as much as possible. Meanwhile, she's growing up and wanting to do things on her own and be left alone.  It's a delicate balance and one we are still figuring out around here.

See you next week!  Maybe with a dog, who knows?!
