“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” ~Lao Tzu With two rambunctious kids, a stressful job, and a house to maintain, life was hectic.
For many years, my children begged for a dog, and I would always say, “When you are older and life slows down a bit.” Time was ticking by, but life was no less chaotic when my then preteens made yet another pitch.
With more than a little trepidation, we brought home a little ball of Golden Doodle fluff who we called Murphy. How much trouble could he be?
In a short time, our cute puppy grew into a hundred-pound goofball. He fit into our lifestyle completely, which is to say, he added more mayhem to the already full and frenetic life we led.
