I was cleaning up my desk today and realized that my AKC Certificate of Inspection was buried beneath some filing.  I meant to post it in December, but that is the way my life has been lately!

As busy and crazy as the week before Christmas is, of course the inspector from AKC would decide to come out and inspect my business on December 20th!  What a crazy day that was, but at the end of the day, I was glad to have it over and Mr. James gave us another Gold Stamp of approval which according to the inspector only a few are given this coveted stamp!  So….I had to brag a little.  We are pleased to have been given the Gold Stamp Approval stating that we have gone *above and beyond* the requirements set by AKC to be approved as breeders for AKC registered puppies.

I hope to get my certificate posted on the website soon for all to see.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day tomorrow, for Valentine’s Day.
May you find someone to touch with words of kindness and love….

Wow,
I can hardly believe January is already gone and I forgot to say hello!
This is a crazy winter in Texas…I didn’t mow a single time last summer because the drought was so severe the grass could not even grow.  And now…I’m mowing in February!  crazy….

It has been a busy season and many of our pups are leaving us this week and next…such a beautiful bunch.  Always bittersweet to see them go, but wow, what a great bunch of people I have met to give them new homes.  We are so blessed.

We are down to the last few of our mid Winter babies and they are at such a cute stage.  They are running and chewing and tackling each other and “strutting their stuff” to see who is top dog.  Very entertaining….I get nothing done!  🙂

Pomeranians fill your heart with so much love….they truly are irresistible!  Never have I known such a sensitive and truly loving breed.   If you have never owned a pomeranian you have to have one to know what I’m talking about and for those of you who do have one….well, you know…..

BB delivered a gorgeous litter last week which I will be posting soon.
Five Girls!!!!!  We were really down on the girls this past year, so she is making up for the deficit!  All just beautiful…..three dark creams/light chocolate, one black, and one orange sable.  All were 4 to 4 1/2 oz. at birth and she delivered all of them in just an hour and a half…..she amazes me.  They are doing great and I hope to get pictures up soon.

Happy New Year!  I hope things are getting back to normal for everyone.  I hope 2012 holds great things for you all and I hope you are looking forward to a new start as much as I am.

2011 was an incredible year for Dee Dees Poms and we have placed so many precious babies in the most fantastic homes.  You guys are awesome!

I just feel the need to say thank you to all of you who have made this past year so fun.  I absolutely LOVE hearing from all of you and I have enjoyed so many photos and stories and I just love to know that these precious bundles of fur are continuing to be loved on by such great people.

I wish there was a way to share all of the great Christmas cards I received with photos of all the poms! (and of course the family too, but we know whose the cutest, right?!  LOL)  They are all just adorable.  And I just got a Happy New Year card this week that was adorable too with two happy little poms in the photo…precious!  🙂
One of these days I am going to make a calendar with all the cute photos….wouldn’t that be great?

On another note….Priscilla, my beautiful little orange girl, kept me up all night last night…ugh!   But it was worth it, because she has given birth to three adorable little babies and all are healthy and doing great.  Mom is a little tired(not as tired as me I bet!), but to be expected.  She was a couple of days past her due date and she had a bit of a time with one of them, but they are all doing just great now.

I will be sending out an update/birth announcement by the end of the week with some photos and more information.  I do have deposits on the litter, so not sure which ones will be available yet.
If you are not on my updates/notification list, just let me know and I will add you.

Happy 2012!  🙂

December 20, 2011

I love this season of the year for so many reasons.  There seems to be an upspoken desire in the hearts of so many people to be thinking “out of themselves” and actually looking to meet the needs or wants of other people.  Wouldn’t it be something if we lived like that all of the time!?

I love the festivities and the lights and the beauty that comes with all the decorating.  I love the anticipation of the kids and the wonder of the many stories told. I love the food….did I say I love the food?!  🙂
I love that we get to be with family….whether that means blood kin, special friends, or maybe just our furry friends….Christmas is a time to share life and make memories.

Mostly I love the reason we celebrate, and the hope and love and redemption that the story of Christmas is all about. There are so many lonely hearts at this time of year, and my prayer is that we would all take the loneliness or the hurts or the sadness that sometimes overtakes us this time of year and squeeze it out like a sponge as we see through new eyes and search for those around us to see who needs a hug, or reassurance or a kind word or a meal or……whatever the opportunity might be.  I have always found that to refill the love in my heart I just have to look outside of my own heart and finds opportunities to distribute love elswhere…..funny how that works.

I hope your Christmas is filled with opportunities to love….
