Spoiled Babies


Our Black Lab  Old Buck prefers the wading pool to drink from!
Young babies learning to communicate will often point to an object they want and expect you to give it to them. 

Funny thing is our dogs have learned to point also.

Buck also enjoys a drink inside on hot days!

During some very hot days, we brought our three dogs into the house and they are assigned to some area rugs. 

One of those very warm days, we filled a pan with water and allowed them to have a nice drink because they were panting from the heat.

The very next day, our dog Luke began to stand in front of the sink and point to the faucet, indicating that he wanted a drink from the indoor water pan.

Luke enjoys a drink too!
You might say we spoil our dogs, and we complied with his wishes.  Now all three dogs enjoy getting a drink indoors from time to time.

When they are outside, they have a nice dog water bucket but we also daily fill a small hard plastic wading pool with water. 

Wouldn’t you know it?  They prefer to drink from the wading pool.

Dogs are fun and funny too, just like we humans are.  Although they are spoiled, there are times when I also feel spoiled. 

My husband and my children are good to me, and so is the Lord.  I must always remember to be thankful and grateful for kindness, mercy and goodness shown to me.

We are spoiled a bit aren't we? It's so easy to take what great things we have for granted... Thanks for making me stop to think about the little things that are really monumental in the overall scope of this fallen world.
