It's My Gotcha Day!

Three years ago today


Mom and Dad got up early on a very cold winter day 
and drove 300 miles to Oregon to pick up a little pug puppy



Here I am in my new home


Checking out my new big brother
I miss him


It was so very cold so I got a new coat to wear


I found lots of new toys to play with


and mom's soft robe to snuggle in for a nap


I got my very own little bed to sleep in

and a wonderful furever home!


Happy Gotcha Day to me!
