No opposable thumbs, but she can skype.

Do you see the laptop at her paws?

For those of you who didn't know, Jon and I have a dog.  She's a Blenheim-colored Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, now about a year old, whose name is Reagan Liberty Reimer.  I apologize for not yet introducing her, partly because she isn't with us on most of our adventures; those bed and breakfasts aren't always pet-friendly, and neither are hours of driving for a road trip.

The idea of having a dog started off about last March, and part of the concept behind it was to have a companion at home for me on my days off and for Jonathan, if and when I got deployed.  And here we are (the when, not the if)...and Reagan is Jon's miniature furry follower for all things at home.  We are so thankful for her, and thankful for all of our family and friends who help us take care of her (when Jon needs a break or has to travel) and invite Jonathan and Reagan over for company. 

Dogs aren't necessarily man's best friend...that's the role I play.  However, she's a blessing to us, and we are so very thankful for God's creation of furry little creatures without opposable thumbs.
