Houseguest

Last night our doorbell rang after Emma went to bed, although she did happen to be up since her tummy was bothering her. One of our chaplain's wives was outside asking if we could keep their dog at our house since they are in TLF waiting for their house, and their room is not pet friendly. I of course said yes, so she brought their dog Delilah over. Emma wasn't feeling well, so she just stayed in bed. But when she woke up she was sad because she didn't get to see the doggie. I said, "do you want to? Because she is downstairs." :) so we went down to see her. Delilah is part Great Dane, and is, as Emma says, "bigger than Pepper." But she is very gentle. She is pretty timid, waiting for us to tell her if she can come into another room or outside. Emma has shown her pictures, and had me put on music for her, too. She (Emma) even took herout by herself...without asking. Thankfully Deliah doesn't chase cats like Pepper did, because the neighbor cat came over to get some attention from Emma, too. After breakfast, which was interesting because Deliah can reach our table, we went for a walk to the stream at the bottom of the hill. It was a nice, relaxing morning. We miss having a dog, and I know Emma loves having someone to take care of. I think it works out for everyone.

"Hi Emma"

"I like eggs, too."

Blurry, but Delilah was basically sitting on my lap since she is so tall.

Showing her the family board.

Ready for a walk!

We missed our dog walks!

Comfy and much cooler inside! 

She is using the lemur as a baby carrier...
