Oh Katie, How Do I Love Thee?

Let me count the ways.
I love your shy, serious look.
And the cute little spots under your chin.
I love the "snaggle tooth" expression you get,
when your lip catches on that big lower canine.
And those adorable white eyelashes. 
(How did you get such beautiful white eyelashes? 
Your brother doesn't have white eyelashes.)
So many ways and reasons to love you. 
My only wish, 
that you'd come sooner. 
So we could love you
longer.

  1. She is a lovely girl! There is something so noble and beautiful in the gray whiskers of an older dog.

  3. Looks like Katie overcame her camera shyness. That's awesome! What a sweetheart. And I love white eyelashes on dogs. Friends of ours have a black Australian Shepherd and she has the loveliest white lashes and icy-blue eyes. So cute.

  5. Hi Brenda,
    Thank you for your visiting and nice comment!

    Love to know your sweet Katie! She looks adorable!
    Did you know that Katie looks like a little my dear dog Flora? To see Flora, please, go to Categories and click on "Flora".
    Have a nice weekend.

  6. Me again to see your dear Katie!
    Did you know that Flora also had a major camera phobia? Flora was a big challenging to photograph too. Like Katie, looks like Flora was "from one of those cultures that thinks the camera is going to steal her soul."
