In my 15 years of living, I was never once graced with the luxury of a pet. Sad I know; but don’t worry for I am pet-less no more. Even though it’s been a couple of weeks, this puppy has changed my life for the best and the worst. This gorgeous shiny brown coated, brown and blue eyed dog has made my life worth living and when I say that I mean it. It was just supposed to be a regular Wednesday when we got her. My birthday was two days ago at the time and my sister informed me about the possibility of meeting an adoptable puppy.Since that day she’s been scratching, biting, eating, and destroying everything I own. But you know what; She’s still my little angel, the one who makes me laugh, cry, and yell more than anyone has and I still cherish all those very moments. She has taught me so much, like how to control my temper, maintain better maintenance, how to care for someone, and the struggles of taking care of children. Despite all that I still look forward to every day and every moment that is spent with her, she’s like a roller coaster I never wanna get off of. That girl may be small but trust me she’s a lot for her size. She is the representation of no matter how small, mighty, weak, difficult you or your life may be, you can still make it in life. You'll still make someone's day, still push through life's hardships, and fate will always reward you. Like it has me with her. So this is all for you Lily Bear. Thank you for being in my life.
