This was kind of a bittersweet Christmas as we still miss Max a lot but we had Hope to see all the wonders and sights of Christmas. The flashing Christmas lights were intimidating to her at first but once we got her to go to the tree and see that is was okay she was fine. In fact, some of the ornaments interested her quite a lot as they were stuffed ornaments! Her first Christmas present was sent to her by a wonderful, caring person, Ginny. Hope loves the Christmas bear she sent and sleeps with it. There was a lot of excitement around the house that Hope was not quite used to but she eventually settled down. Of course, there were the Christmas treats for her but she could not have too many because of her diabetes but she did thoroughly enjoyed the ones she had!! I have pictures but I am having trouble getting them on here for all of you to see. Can someone give me some directions on how to post them? Hope all of you had a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year!
