Today is the 2nd anniversary of the day I got Samantha. Two years ago, I fell in love with and adopted this baby girl:

I knew taking in Samantha would change my life, but I didn't bargain for exactly how much. Everything is different - for the better. Every day when I wake up, I know I have the unconditional, unwavering love of the sweetest, most gorgeous, funniest, all-around best dog in the world and I feel absolutely blessed. Sometimes I look at her and my heart feels like it will explode with all the love I have for her. I owe so much to her and I strive to be the person that she thinks I am. She deserves nothing but the absolute best and even that isn't quite good enough.

I love you, Samantha! I hope you know that and that you never, ever forget it.

Kisses, hugs, and bellyrubs,
Mommy


Here are some pictures I took of her at midnight this morning.

Moooooom! I'm tryin' ta sleep!

Thaniks everyone! Unfortunately, Samantha was left alone all day today but I'm going to rush home to spend time with her. I'm making steak (of which she'll get some) and then I may take her to go get a snowball or an ice cream. I got her a couple bandannas since she's a young lady now, and toys are so childish... ;) I'll try and get some pictures of her wearing it tonight and post them here. :)

Thanks again for all your kind words. I knew you all would understand. :)
