I'm originally from Washington state where I had hoped to return after college, but it wasn't meant to be (at least not yet). I came all the way to BYU in Utah to get my education and ended up finding Nathan, my husband, who is also from my hometown, and who I dated in high school. Why I had to come all this way beats me. I did finish my degree in Early childhood education in April 2000, however, we decided to start a family rather than have me teach. Kirsten was born in Feb. 2001, then Zachary in Nov. of 2002 and Caleb in Sept. 2006. Now my life is my family and my full time- lifetime job is wife and mother.
This is Daisy! She is our good friends newest member to their family. When they went to a family missionary welcome home, Kirsten got to dogsit Daisy! Isn't she cute! I wasn't sold on having Daisy have free rain of the house, so we set hr up in the kitchen...in a big playpen area. The kids spend a lot of time with her...cuddling, throwing her bone and watching her slide across the floor to get it. When Daisy would go to the gate the kids would try to lure her away with attention. Kirsten took her out to potty every 1.5 hours during the day. It was more work than she expected, but she loved every minute. Zach and Caleb were good dogsitters too. Daisy went to Friday date night at Sonic with us and to the Saturday soccer game too. Through it all she stayed relatively clean except when Kirsten, trying to be helpful had her play in a water puddle at the game and then walk through the wet muddy grass. Needless to say we gave her a foot bath when we got home. Thanks Laings for the chance to watch Daisy!
