Puppy pick-up tomorrow

I called my sister's house and asked her younger son if he still wanted to go with me to pick up my puppy tomorrow. He was so excited, I could hear him smiling. Seriously.

I had promised him on the way back from meeting the puppy the first time that he could come back with me, and hold him on the way home, so I'm not going to break my promise and send my sister to fetch the little guy.

He was just too thrilled for me to change plans on him like that, so I'm not going to. It isn't that I don't appreciate her offer. I just don't want to disappoint him.

He was asking me excitedly on the phone how I thought the puppy would look, and he advised me not to get the puppy anything stuffed, unless it was a treat ball with actual food inside, because their dog had shredded all stuffed animals they gave her, and apparently eaten a lot of stuffing. Hehehe. How did he know that when I said I needed to stop by PetSmart for a toy, that I was EXACTLY going to be looking for a treat ball that you put food into? I don't think I had mentioned it, but hey, that's fine. :)
