Animal Lover

Payton has been an animal lover since day one. She just loves any animal so much that she can't control herself when she gets near one. She insists on petting every dog she sees, big or small. When she sees one being walked on our street, she runs in the house and gets a milk bone cookie to give to our passing visitor. Whether the owner wants to know or not, they get the complete low down on Payton's dog Dora. What kind of dog she is, how old she is, what she likes to eat and that we call her a rugrat. Then they get the third degree about their furry friend. And she wants to know it all and there's no way they are getting away without giving up all the details. There is actually one lady that switches to the other side of the street if Payton is outside. I think its a bit rude of her but she doesn't get away scott free. If Payton spots her, she will yell her salutations across the street at her. I just laugh. That's what you get. If you don't like it, then walk a different way.

Below is a picture of Payton and Maya taken at Aunt Carolyn's house on Easter Sunday. Poor Maya...she just couldn't get away. Cooper was smart and hid the entire time we were there.




We are sure that animals will be a big part of Payton's future. She will either be a groomer, maybe work at a vet or could possibly just own a few hundred of them herself. Either way, they will be loved to bits.
