Happy Birthday My Dear Macy!

Today is a big day around our household!  It is Macy's 11th birthday!  And you better believe we are celebrating!  Yes, you heard me right, I am celebrating the birth of my DOG!  For those that know me best, this comes as no surprise at all.  And for those of you that don't know me very well, you probably think I am nuts, unless of course you remember this post that I wrote I about my beloved dog back in September. If that's the case, then you probably already KNOW I am nuts.  That's ok though, I have no hard feelings!

Anyway, back to what I was saying...It's Macy's birthday!  Why am I making such a big deal about it you ask?  Well...besides the fact that I love her to death, when I first found out about Macy's heart and her likelihood of going into heart failure sooner rather than later, I was told she will probably only live 6-12 more months.  It has now been 2 years, and despite a cough, my pretty little princess of a dog is doing pretty well.  Thank you God!   

I am so blessed!  And no its not just because I have a dog that I love more than life itself, it is also because God gave me this awesome guy for a husband who, while the whole rest of the world thinks I am going crazy, he gets me.  He gets my love for this spoiled long-haired chihuahua.  He pretends to be is just as excited as I am to celebrate her birthday.  He lets me spoils her rotten too and loves her just almost as much as I do.   How did I get so lucky?

I love her to pieces and I will continue to celebrate her birthday for as long as she lives.   And as you can tell, she is just ecstatic about getting a year older!  Happy 11th birthday Macy girl!
