1. Plate cleaner!! A very important job if I must say so myself!! After all mommy just has to put them in the dishwasher after that!!
2. Critter chaser!! I keep the pesky squirrels outta the bird food (then I can chase the birds!!)
3. Exercise dog for mommy and daddy!!! If I didn't keep em chasing after me then what else would they do for exercise??
4. Towel Thief!! For some reason I can't resist any towels in the house--even if they're on the kitchen counter--must be cuz I like to hear the words "what have you got Bailey Ann" and the chase is on!!

Now it's my turn to tag friends and ...the winners are----
As Bailey Ann's 1st birthday approaches I can't help but think back to this time last year that was MaddyLynns last week here with us. I know many of my fantastic dear friends here at Dogster have gone thru and are going thru the same mental problems I am.
I can't help asking myself "if we had the lump removed earlier would we have been able to save her?", "if we hadn't given her the rymadil for pain" if if if if. My heart keeps asking the if if if if questions. My sister n law (who is so much like a sister thats usually what I call her) said tonight that it was MaddyLynns time so we could bring Bailey Ann into our hearts and lives. My husband says "no, the bleeding problems inside from the dog foods and the meds would have taken her from us earlier if we had done the surgery earlier". I don't know---all I know is I miss her smell, her fur, her beautiful red gold curls around her neck, her beautiful eyes-so expresive and full of love, her love of play (she had more toys than a fully grown kid!!) seeing her laying in the sun looking so beautiful--I still pull out her collar and smell it-I kept some of her last toys and neck scarf-
I can't look at the paperwork I kept of the last pitiful week-going back and forth to the vet-trying desperately to stop the bleeding everytime she opened her mouth. Her beautiful eyes didn't shine anymore--they were sad--but she was loving to the very end. She walked into an office she didn't know and greeted the very caring tech and vet she had never met like she had known them all her life--big tail swishes and licks and then lay down on the floor on her side--I lay down with her and cradled her head and just kept saying over and over again I love you MaddyLynn--mommy daddy love you!!! and then she was gone. Dear God she was gone....
I look at her ashes container and wonder how such a big beautiful wonderfull full of life-love-everything you ever wanted from this wonderful girl--could possibly fit in the container. I don't know if I will ever bury her--I don't think I could possibly look at her ashes---
I like to think she visited Bailey Ann before she crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Bailey was born Jan 19 and MaddyLynn left us Jan 21--I think she told Bailey there would come a time when they would all leave their mommy but she was to hold out till this old couple with a broken heart would come to her farm--all she had to do was sit at the womans feet & when she picked her up she was to give the old fart big kisses and she would have a fantastic loving home -----after all--that is how MaddyLynn picked us so why wouldn't it work again?
We love you MaddyLynn Tootise Bear Guy!!!
