The joy of pet ownership.
So, a couple of weeks ago I was on the phone with my friend, B. She called while I was upstairs working on a project in my sons room. My daughter was up there with me, playing in her room and I had just let Koko, the yellow lab locomotion, outside.
We chatted and laughed for a few minutes, it was a quick “Hey, what are you doing?” conversation.
Read: I was not distracted for hours.
After I hung up, I made my way downstairs to put the phone back on its cradle to charge.
And I saw this standing at the back door.
I didn’t really think much of it. Until I got a little closer.
And I noticed these.
And this.
I was understandably thrilled.

I had a chocolate named Coco. Once while I was working (this was pre-kids), he took every single cookbook I owned and dragged them into the living room and tore them to shreds. Nickel sized book bindings littered my floor. I think he had fun. 
I miss him.

He looks like he is saying: “Sorry mom, I just couldn’t help myself”!

P.S. In response to being a dog owner and getting exercise… we take the 4-wheeler around our neighborhood while big running dog is on leash beside it. I don’t think I lose many calories this way. Dang. Ha!

Holy Cow!!!
But it’s hard to get angry when those eyes are looking at you. He obviously knew he had done something wrong.
It would have been hard for me not to laugh just out of sheer frustration.

That’s the guiltiest look I have seen in a long time! Bless him.
Those eyes are precious.

And that’s why we’re pet-free for the time being.
