La Vie en Rose

We have added a new pup to our lives.  La Vie en Rose (aka "Rosa"), a Norfolk Terrier,  flew from her home in Syracuse, NY with Bob to Kansas City on Wednesday.  She is two and one-half years old and joins her Norfolk buddy, one year old Kauffman, and her two Border Terrier, buddies Fenway (age 13) and Hanover (age 10).

Rosa came to us as a surprise, when a friend had to re-home her.  When we were asked a few weeks ago if we wanted to add Rosa to our lives, we talked about it at length.  Adding a fourth dog to the pack is not something done lightly.

As we discussed it, I looked up to the heavens and asked Camden our Norfolk who is on the other side of the rainbow bridge to give us a sign if adding Rosa to our lives would be the right thing to do.  The next day, I was going through some 1998 gardening magazines and opened to an article called "La Vie en Rose" about a garden in Norfolk England.  It was the sign we needed.  Strangely enough, the woman sitting across the aisle from Bob on the flight to KC with Rosa was from Norfolk, England.  It was meant to be.

Rosa is a very, very sweet little girl who loves the ladies.  She would be content to sit on my lap all day.

Welcome to our lives Rosa!
