And that of course is exactly what I did!!!! That exactly what my mom says all the time. When I have my own house i can have as many dogs as i please but at this moment i have to settle one. You better believe im, going to have more than one dog when i move out and get my life sitiuated. Ginger sleeps on the bed with me a first my mom would yell at me but now she doesnt care, Ginger even jumps on the bed and sleeps with my mom when i was sleeping over my cousins or a friends house. Its soo funny, my mom was like I would have never thought i would love a dog as much as i love ginger (she grew up with a lot of dogs and a whole bunch of other animals), she said I only got Ginger because of you. I was like Mom you do realize that when I move out Ginger's coming with me, lol. She was my birthday gift when I turned 15 anyway I'm Hispanic (if you've met me you probably would have never guessed because i dont look hispanic but if i start talking you'd believe me) so that was my cotillion gift, so I had no big Hispanic party I just said ill have a sweet 16.
