I had 5 pairs of eyes staring me down waiting for an answer. (The 6th pair of eyes luckily doesn't know how to do this....yet.)

They'd spent the better part of six months begging me. 

The object of their desire was everywhere we went. On every corner, every road, and in every park. 

We'll do everything! You won't have to do anything! This will be the best thing EVER! 

Fine. Fine. Fine. 

We'll go on the waitlist for a puppy. 

<<Insert squeals of joy and happy dancing>>

Let's be real, they were trying to convince the lady with six kids. The one who adores babies and cuddles. They didn't have to work too hard. 

Our pandemic puppy will likely arrive this summer or fall. Her name is already picked out. Her best friends are already waiting for her. 

This rmade me think of a book we just finished about man's best friend written by Katherine Applegate called, The One and Only Bob. It's the second book of a must read series even...
