Angie,

I just wanted to take a moment while the house is quiet to tell you how well Phoebe is doing. She is the sweetest thing I have ever seen! You have done a wonderful job with these puppies! She is getting to the point where she will whine when she needs to potty. I let her out and she gets so excited!! She takes care of her business, then she rushes over to me so I can praise her! What a precious little girl! She has her blanket and her pillow, and that is where she takes her naps. Yesterday she disappeared on me and I found her curled up on her bed taking a power nap. She slept for about an hour. The kids were here and they kept her busy playing all day. She loves them and they love her!! Winston has done really well with her. He has let her know what her boundaries are with his things and she has graciously accepted them. I still keep an eye on him to make sure he remains gentle with her. But he is doing great! He gets his treats too so he is happy. I have a few more pictures to take on this roll of film and I'll get it developed so I can send you some pictures! Well, I better go now. I'll write back soon and send you the pictures. Have a happy New Year!! P.S. I think her registered name will be Pierre's Sweet Phoebe (pronounced Fee-bee).

Talk to you soon,
Amy
