On May 8th, 2010, after three long months of preparing and waiting for a puppy, we received Wynette.

About two weeks ago, on April 25th, we found out we would be the proud parents of a female Yellow Labrador Retriever. We received a yellow balloon to represent that the puppy would be yellow, and a pink balloon to represent that our puppy was a girl. There was a cute bone tied to the end. The yellow balloon had "W" written on it. The "W" meant that our puppy's name would start with a "W". We were so super thrilled and excited to find out what our puppy would look like and its name.

He Wishes For the Cloths of Heaven

HAD I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

W.B. Yeats (1865–1939)
