She drives me crazy! I'm used to my older, calmer, cuddly dog. But, the 6 month old bundle of joy is more like a ball of energy! The two finally get along and, except for a little excessive rough housing and some toy envy here or there, they are friends.
Without them, the house would be much too quiet. So, even though she drives me crazy, it's what helps to bring more life to our house.
So, a few weeks ago, in an effort to bond with and use up excessive puppy energy, I decided a morning walk would become part of my daily routine. I quickly realized that both dogs needed a morning walk. On the mornings like this morning that I roll out of bed not ready to start my day, I think about those two anxiously awaiting their walk. While I walk our baby, the older one spends the entire time by the door knowing when I get back it's her turn.
So, if I don't feel like walking, that thought quickly changes when I see how excited they are to see me in the morning. How can I let them down? And, so I am now forced to start my day with 20 to 30 minutes of quiet time to think, pray, and know that 2 puppies are happy just because I spent a little time with them. I can't think of a better way to start my day.
So, where was God today? He helped me realize the blessing of my morning walks.
Blessings,
Jennifer
