Her name is Junie. But she also goes by June, Junie B., Juneslie, Junsel, Junaisee, Naisee, Naisle, Gill, Gills, Gilly, Gillsle, Gilligan, Deidre, Dee Dee, and Boo Boo. When we opened ourselves up to finding the right dog for us, she came. And indeed, she was a perfect...
Myriam, Jen, Jen, Hula, Ali, Mati, Kelly Rae, Andrea and me (on the end- running into place after I pressed the shutter for our annual timer shot). I'm not usually at a loss for words but coming home from a friendship retreat like this leaves me...
