She has eight brand new puppies at her house. Husband and I were out there Friday and she let me hold them. I'm a sucker for baby things (except baby people with wobbly heads).
I stood there and watched them crawl all over each other and grunt like newborn puppies do.
My favorite part was when Sawyer, my five-year-old nephew, told me that when the puppies came out of the mother's tummy, they were in blue shells that the mother ate. Being the awesome, educational, slightly weird aunt I am, I tried to tell him the blue shell was called a placenta. He wasn't impressed.

I scratched the mother on the chest and told her she did a good job. She pretended that I wasn't a complete stranger and ignored the fact that I probably didn't really know what I was talking about.
Now if only we lived somewhere with room for the babies to run and chase ducks.
I would take two.
