All year long I listened, pay attention and put together what I think my children and my dear husband want for Christmas. They are usually surprised, I guess they didn't noticed me watching and listening. This year is no exception and the lists are ready......to be truthful, I am so confident, my Christmas shopping is already done. No shopping with crowds for this girl. What a surprise to learn that my kids started doing the same thing recently. Wait until you see what they have on their list: National and Sieger Show Tapes (gave them Bob Lindsay's info) Breeding and Genetics Books Canine Behavior Seminar (got the tickets today, that's how I found out!) Tom Lams Seminar New tires for my bike A Hydraulic Grooming table (that one will stay in the wish list for a while <G>) Lots and lots of books. Gift certificates for a Full Body Massage And the number one item: A new dog. I can pick the pup if they get to name it....this will be fun.....I want a male pup, a GSD of course, black and red, gorgeous, correct and sound. Nothing more, nothing less. This "item" has a 3-5 year receiving date. No need to pack another soul. Are they great or what??? It's beginning to look like Christmas......
