you can't always get what you want...

today, i fell in love with this adorable little guy....

colby and i had an hour to spare before spencer's football game, so we went to petsmart in owasso.  it was adoption day, and i was ready to adopt.  this precious little dog was so sweet and calm and so CUTE!  i took several pictures of him so i could show the preacher.  

i convinced him to at least go look at the dog after the game.  i hoped we would go as soon as the game was over, but we went to eat first.  when we got back to petsmart, this little guy's cage was empty.  i wanted to cry.  i looked down the aisle and saw him attached to a leash that was in the hands of his new owner.  

i know i tell my kids all the time that you can't always get what you want.  boy is that a hard lesson to keep learning.  i REALLY wanted this dog, but i guess God has other plans.
