I came as close as I've ever come in my life to being hysterical this evening.

I thought my 12 1/2 year old lab (the baby of my heart) was lost. Long story, but in a nutshell, she got out of our backyard and I was out looking for her in our neighborhood. Several people said, yeah, they had seen her just a few moments ago, but I couldn't find her anywhere. Finally, one person I asked said he had just seen a car drive buy with a black lab sticking its head out the window.

I was sure someone had picked up my baby! I drove back to the house sobbing my heart out (which of course upset my husband as well) and my husband drove me to Wal-Mart to get ink cartridges for his printer so we could put up signs. But my husband kept saying: "Maybe it was just a coincidence. Maybe it wasn't Star."

But I was just so sure that it was her - that would just be too much of a coincidence.

Lo and Behold! We came back from Wal-Mart and there was my baby walking in our cul de sac waiting for us to let her in the house.

If you are a dog person, I'm sure you can imagine how I felt at that moment. :)

[All of my dogs have collars with our phone numbers on them, but Star's somehow fell off her collar about a week ago and I hadn't replaced it yet. I'm sure you know the first thing on my agenda this evening!]
