Happy Gotcha Day and welcome to your furever family, Sadie! 🐾❤️
Today, Rich, Hannah, Rachel, and I spent nearly four hours on the road to bring this sweet little girl into our lives, and it was worth every minute.
While Sadie is officially Rachel’s puppy, we all get the joy of loving her, spoiling her, and soaking up those irresistible puppy cuddles and kisses. Somehow, Rachel getting a puppy has also promoted Rich and me to Grandpup parents, a title we’re more than happy to accept!
We’re excited to watch Sadie grow and become part of our family. As for Maggie… after 15 years as the undisputed princess and queen of the castle, she’s still deciding how she feels about this new annoyance in her life. But don’t you worry Maggie because your throne is safe. Nobody could ever replace you. Love doesn’t work that way. We don’t replace; we simply make room for more.
There’s no arguing that there is something truly healing about a puppy. The joy, the shenanigans, the companionship, and the unconditional love they bring into our lives. I have always believed that dogs have a special purpose; to remind us how to love unconditionally, find joy in the simplest moments, and to be fully present. Their companionship can be deeply therapeutic, bringing comfort on the difficult days and making the good days even brighter. I have a feeling Sadie is arriving at just the right time in our lives and will be a perfect addition to our family.
Sadie, whose name Rachel and Hannah chose together already feels meaningful. Sadie means “princess” and is derived from the Hebrew name Sarah. A beautiful name for a beautiful little princess.
I also don’t think it’s a coincidence that Sadie and Maggie’s birthdays are only two days apart. And that she has the same pretty blue eyes as her Uncle Jacob and Grandpup Rich! Maybe some things are just meant to be.
Welcome, sweet Sadie. We can’t wait to make memories with you. ❤️
