The Night Before Sable by Nancy Sunderland (All rights reserved, please do not copy)

T'was the night before Sable, and all through the house, not a shoe was left stranded, not a toy strewn about.

The kennel lay empty, set up with such care, in hopes that a doodle pup, soon would be there.

The big girls are in school, the baby in bed, while visions of labradoodles danced in their heads.

With Daddy on the farm, and me in the kitchen. I sat down for coffee, all the while wishin'

That the day would sail by, and seem but a minute, but really I knew, this was only the beginning

Of a journey we started not too long ago, to get a new puppy, we'd love, and watch grow.

Combs, brushes, clippers, shears, shampoo and spray, I can't wait to learn grooming the doodle way.

Two stainless steel bowls, some dog food & treats, mapquest directions, and GPS in the seat

Of my car filled with gas, for the journey before us. I know it will be fun, amazing, and wonderous.

To my friend Jennifer at Grandview, and Kim & Mollie at the breeders at ManorLake, thank you, thank you!

Also to doodlekisses and all of the members, I learned a lot, and you made the waiting so much better!

So tomorrow morning, bright and early, we'll head South towards Albany to pick our puppy.

What a Blessing Sable will be to our family for years. I look forward to tomorrow, when I'm crying, happy,

puppy tears!

I brushed my two labs outside on the front lawn with an undercoat rake for like an hour tonight, they shed sooooooo much.... I can't wait to have a dog that doesn't shed!

I get to track Sable flight through Continental, that's so cool!

Nice poem, but now you've started something. I'll be expecting more poems about Sable's antics and experiences.

Hang in there- dear little Sable is almost home! It sounds like she is going to be one cherished puppy...

I think we all will be crying happy puppy tears for you and your family (and we are all just as anxious as you are) knowing Sable is finally home. Can't wait to see pics of her, and the kids with her. What a special day for your daughters to have a puppy to grow up with. Love the poem, congrats your big day is almost here...Love Denise, HannahNHoney
