Psssssst........ Hey, this is Miss Toto,

a.k.a. Tote(s). Mommy doesn't know I am on her puter talkin to all of you. She is too busy making those babies she is soooooooo proud of. Yeah, you know Christmas will be here soon and she is trying to help Santa out. Welllllll, you know where that leaves me.... had to find something to do until my daddy gets home.
So, I thought I would introduce myself and tell ya how I became mommy's little furbaby and made her dreams come true. You see, mommy and daddy's two legged kids ( 2 girls, 1 boy)grew up and moved in with other people. Then they all started having babies, kinda like us furbabies having litters, only they just had one at a time. So that left mommy and daddy all alone 'cept for Buddy the C A T. I'll get to him later. Anyway, 'bout six years ago, mommy was having a really tough year. You see, in August of 2002 she had something called back surgery. That same year in December she was diagnosed with malignant melanoma. Not real sure what that is, but daddy told me it was really really bad. So again, mommy went back to the hospital for yet another surgery. Well, it was getting close to Christmas that year, kinda like it is now, and daddy asked mommy what she wanted for Christmas. Mommy told him she had always wanted a real "Toto" for her very own and would he please get her one. You see, daddy didn't like any furbabies in the house all the years those two legged kids were around. So mommy just knew he was going to say, "how 'bout something else?" But.......... he surprised her by saying, "ok, if you really want a "Toto" for Christmas, I'll get you one! If you ask me, I think he was sooooo worried about her that he wanted to make her happy and whatever it took he was going to try and make it happen. Mommy looked and looked and looked all over the place and couldn't find anyone around here that had any Totos'. She didn't give up. She kept looking and looking and searching and calling and finally one day she talked to a very nice lady a few states over that told her she had a litter due in January. Mommy asked the nice lady if there was a girl puppy in the litter, could she please have her. So, on January 8, 2003, I was born!

Yep! that's me in the picture. Cute huh? Mommy was soooooooo excited when the lady called and told her I was here. The next few weeks the nice lady emailed pictures of me to show mommy how I was growing and how much I loved the camera. After 'bout eleven weeks the BIG day came. Mommy and Daddy was coming to get me! YIPPPPEEEE! They took a whole weekend and traveled for miles and miles just so they could meet my birth mommy and daddy and the nice lady and see where I was born. They must've really really wanted me! Well, mommy did anyway, not too sure 'bout daddy at the time. You should have seen us that very first day we met. I remember sitting in the living room in a "holding pen" just waiting for mommy to come through the door. The nice lady already told me mommy and daddy were on their way and for me to be extra good when they came in. Well when mommy came through the door and picked me up I got so excited I jumped right out of her arms and started running all over the house. You should have seen everyone trying to catch me. I was like lightning, darting under the furniture, around the corners and laughing the whole time. 'Cept they didn't know that I wasn't running from them; I was just in a hurry to get in the car and come here to my forever home. After mommy met my birth mommy and daddy and signed a bunch of papers and visited with the nice lady we all got in the car and headed south to Mississippi.

Well my friends, it's gettin late and daddy's home so I better sign off before mommy catches on to what I'm up too. Bye for now, going to my favorite spot........ daddy's lap.
