Latte Macchiato, Caramelized
Honey Latte, Teavana Chai Tea Latte. Yes! I’m at Starbucks. My favorite place
to blog. But, enough of Starbucks. I wanted to share a story with you. 
I’ll need to take you back to
January 2012, my kiddos Matty (14) & Megan (11) were on Christmas break. Denis
and I decided to visit my parents at Marco Island. Perfect weather, sun was shining, beautiful white
beaches, and sparkling blue water. The shopping on 5th Ave /Naples, leisurely dinners,
and riding our bikes to Starbucks every morning. The Christmas decorations were still up and
the holiday lights shining, the spirit of Christmas was still alive. It was an
amazing week. Just what we needed to recharge
due to our hectic schedules. 
We were at Quinn’s to have some
refreshments and watch the spectacular sunset. Denis and I just finished out
first drink and Megan said she wanted to go back to our room. The music was playing and the atmosphere
upbeat. “Seriously go back to our room
now?” We tried to convince Megan to sit for a bit longer.
Then
comes the compromise…Megan stated: “We can stay longer if you buy me a dog?” That’s it! All we need to do is buy Megan a
dog and she will sit quietly while we enjoy the sunset, music and maybe one
more tropical drink. I quickly answered,
“Sure we can do that”! Megan sat quietly for the next hour while we ordered refreshments
for the kids, appetizers and another round of adult drinks. The next morning,
Megan bounced out of bed. “We’re getting a dog!” “We’re getting a dog!”
