Good Bye Old Friend...

This weekend we sadly had to adopt out our beloved Judah after having him for nearly 6 years. Over the last several months, Hannah's allergies have been getting the best of her and with the dog in the house it only made it worse. After many long discussions, we listed Judah on an adoption website and received a huge response. Jamey got to know several families during the process; however, one from New Jersey stuck out. She established a wonderful relationship with a woman named, Jen, who had 3 kids. She was a dog trainer and groomer some years ago but, had to change professions when she divorced her husband. Jen and her son came and visited us last weekend. We spent two days with them including coming to church with us Saturday evening. We shared several laughs and a few tears during our time together. On Sunday they loaded Judah and his gear into their car and hit the road. We have enjoyed the many photos she had posted on Facebook this week. We look forward to hearing about Judah and his new family in the future. We already miss him cleaning our kitchen floor after meals. It seems like Grace is trying to prove a point every day by dumping something off her tray. We all look for him to clean up her messes.
