Saturday tears

We had a good night. No one cried, well the dogs that is. Of course, I did. Why did God bless me with a soft heart? Sometimes I wonder but then why question God. He made me the way that He wanted me. Unfortunately at times that soft heart hurts and it definately is breaking this am. I will take tarheel to be shown this morning at petsmart. I honestly have not gotten attached to him like I have Brylan. Not that I don't like him but I have never been a fan of chihuahuas. This am Brylan went out to play and I let olive and mabes play with him. he loves to fetch and will bring the toy back. Olive is tolerating him. It is actually good for her because she needs to get over her territorial self. Chloe is a little but scared but she is coming around.

I really hope tarheel will get his forever home today. Because he is SO tiny he cannot play with the others and I fear him getting out of the fence in one of the holes dug by Olive. If you read this pray he finds a GOOD home that can give him what he desperately needs and deserves.

As for Brylan, he will go this am to get a bath. He is supposed to go to Petsmart with me for a short time but honestly I am having such mixed emotions about it. On the one hand I want to keep him. I know the burden of 4 dogs is alot but he has just taken to me immediately. I have never seen that from a dog so quickly. then my emotions swing to being unselfish. after all there IS someone out there that wants this dog JUST as bad as I do. So, again, if you are reading this PRAY that if we find a good home today that I will be able to say good-bye. after all the goal of this is to FOSTER and get dogs placed. Not adopt. Perhaps fostering boxers is NOT a good idea but I believe God's plan is perfect and I believe for whatever reason He led me to Upstate Rescue.
One of my favorite verses can be found in Joshua 1.9
For I know the plans I have for you. Plans to prosper you and not hurt you.

His plan, whatever it is, is perfect. If His plan is for me to keep Brylan he will bless that. If it is to get him a new home, He will bless that and heal my heart too.
