And Then There Were Four…Again…

We found Sarah’s owner…
It was a rough night for a certain little girl in our household. However, it seems that Sarah (or whatever her real name is) is a special little dog for the little boy who lost her. Just to make sure that we weren’t too upset about losing her, God made sure that the story of the person who lost her was a doozy. It seems that the little boy who lost her was involved in a car accident recently (how recently, I don’t know) and was paralyzed from the waist down. To make matters worse, he also lost his father in the accident.
I promised Morgan that, in the event that we should find “Sarah’s” owner, we would definitely get another dog. So, I had to explain why Sarah wasn’t here anymore and how important it was that she got back to her rightful owner. This is the stuff they don’t put in the Great Big Book of Good Parenting.
Come to think of it, there’s not a lot of stuff in that book at all…

OHMYGOD. That’s like a horrific version of living in a Seinfeld episode. Can’t just be a little boy, oh no. S’gotta be a little boy who’s paralyzed and recently orphaned.
He’s just a hangnail away from being an Oprah guest.

Yes I do read your entries from time to time… Don’t look so surprised! No really wipe that smug look off your face. I’m sorry for your loss, but glad to hear the little boy got his dog back. I hate to say this, but after living in NYC, I was tempted to ask if you saw the little crippled boy and if you asked them to produce a death certificate for the father. I just don’t trust like I used to. Besides Yorkies are not cheap and they could just be trying to… let me stop!!! Please don’t tell Morgan how cynical and mistrusting her cousin David has become in his old age!
