Saturday we found another orphan. We have no idea the age or breed (maybe black lab?). The neighborhood kids were playing with the puppy on Friday and then Saturday it was just wondering around the neighborhood by itself. I rescued her and she is currently living in our kitchen. (Don't worry Mom we moved the rugs and I will mop and sweep before your next visit.) We are not interested in being pet owners, but if you are just let us know.
Violet has enjoyed having this little puppy around. She is very good at telling the puppy what to do, when to eat, and where to sit. She calls the puppy "Seeba" since the neighborhood kids were calling her Sheba. We left her at my brother's house overnight and when we went back to get her this morning Violet said, "Seeba where's Andy?"

Yesterday Violet played with cousins Noble and Guy, and visited our friends
"Keef and Addy" or Keith and Addison. It is funny to watch Violet in a group setting, or a group of kids. At our House Church, she is the spotlight and goes from person to person making sure all eyes are on her. Last night, she played mostly by herself and didn't seem interested in what the other kids were doing unless she was confiscating their toys. This is an area that needs some work. The nursery worker at church said Violet was hoarding some of the toys. This makes us sad even though people keep reassuring us that it is typical toddler behavior. 
We are still waiting on news about Anara. I am really praying that court will happen this week, but I'm not even sure that is feasible. We are trying to get things as ready as we can before our departure. Hopefully we will have more information soon.

Thanks to Violet for coming to play with "Keef and Addy" as we enjoyed hanging out with her parents! Last night in Addy's bedtime prayer she said "Thank you God for Jesus and Guy and Noble and Violet", so she must have enjoyed having her at her house!
The little puppy "Seeba" has been adopted. It was a quick, easy, and inexpensive adoption. We hope her new family enjoys her.
I love the overall picture. And we will all hold Violet close to our hearts and protect her while you are gone.
I know you'll have your hands full with a new baby soon, but I'm sad for Violet that she doesn't get to keep the puppy.
Her hair looks so cute in pigtails!
P.S. Don't you know hoarding is a Jerome trait?! The good news is, it gets better with each generation. :) My (unsolicited) advice is to just keep on teaching. Sharing is a lifelong lesson that we all have to work on.
