After years of debate, we're getting a dog

Here she is. Born October 10, runt of her litter, she's a Bichon Poodle mix.  She's a cutie pie. We're picking her up today and might I add my 8-year-old daughter Grace, who likes people but loves animals, couldn't sleep.  Best thing ever to happen in her life. Well, the idea was anyway.  We'll see how integrating a three-month old puppy into our household goes in practice!  Prayers, encouragement and advice welcome!
anon and peace,
Chris
