 
      
      It's a tough life but someone has to do it
    
      Read and weep!  Our 
      four babies (it was six with Tia's and Valentine)  
      sleep with us every night.
      
      In fact, we only go on vacaton when our best friend Laurie comes to stay 
      with the babies while we are gone!!
      
      We actually had to get a new California King Size bed so 
      we would all fit!  We built a ramp so the babies could come and go during the night without having to be lifted into and out of bed! 
      
      We can determine who is up at night by their little feet on the hardwood floors.  They are truly a blessing!
      
      Listen to their prayer:
      
      Now I lay me down to sleep,
      The king-size bed is soft and deep..
      I sleep right in the center groove
      My human being can hardly move! 
      
      I've trapped her legs, she's tucked in tight
      And here is where I pass the night
      No one disturbs me or dares intrude
      Till morning comes and "I want food!"
      
      
      I sneak up slowly to begin
      My nibbles on my human's chin.
      She wakes up quickly,
      I have sharp teeth- 
      
      I'm a puppy, don't you see?
      For the morning's here
      And it's time to play
      I always seem to get my way. 
      
      So thank you Lord for giving me
      This human person that I see.
      The one who hugs and holds me tight
      And shares her bed with me at night!
