(haha) This got my mommy thinking about my 2 biological sisters we left behind the day they adopted me.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nBefore I talk about my 2 sisters though, I want to share the following video with you. Thanks to Cherie K. Miller of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pet-peeves.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pet Peeves<\/a> for sharing it with me. The song in the video is by The Mark Chapman Band, and is called, &#8220;<em>Where Would You Go (If You Couldn&#8217;t Go Home)?<\/em>. I&#8217;m reposting it because <strong>100% of the profits<\/strong> from <strong>your download<\/strong> will go to the American Red Cross and other charities dedicated to rebuilding Joplin, MO. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m thankful to not have ever been in the line of a terrible tornado, but recent cities have not been so lucky&#8230; like the city of Joplin, Missouri. <\/p>\n<p>According to the City of Joplin, Missouri:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<em>Joplin is located in southwest Missouri in the &#8220;four states&#8221; region encompassing Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas. At the edge of the Ozark Mountain region, Joplin has a current population of 49,024. <\/em>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On May 22, 2011, a tornado at least three-quarters of a mile wide, terrorized the city of Joplin at 5:30 p.m. on a Sunday. As of June 2, the tornado had taken the lives of 101 people, and injured hundreds. So many people lost everything. So many people and animals were left homeless.<\/p>\n<p>Please take a moment to view the following video, and consider purchasing the song, &#8220;<em>Where Would You Go (If You Couldn&#8217;t Go Home)?<\/em>&#8221; by The Mark Chapman Band. It&#8217;s available now on <a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/where-would-you-go-if-you\/id441590976?ls=1\" target=\"_blank\">iTunes<\/a>, and 100% of the profits will go to the American Red Cross, victims memorial funds, and other charities dedicated to rebuilding Joplin, Mo.<\/p>\n<p>The people and animals of Joplin need our help.

Taylor wondered if I would remember them, and if they would remember me.<\/p>\n<p>Adopting a pet is almost like adopting a human baby &#8212; sometimes people don&#8217;t want to deal with previous siblings. Mommy&#8217;s never wondered about previous siblings before, with any of her past doggies, including Nala. I wonder why she&#8217;s so curious about <em>my<\/em> sisters?<\/p>\n<p>All this wondering got mommy searching online at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.Petfinder.com\" target=\"_blank\">Petfinder.com<\/a>, to take another look at my and my sisters&#8217; adoption pages there. She said she just wanted to look at their photos again. I don&#8217;t know why she had to go <em>there <\/em>to look at their photos &#8212; I have copies of their photos on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/home\/about\/\">this page<\/a>.  <\/p>\n<p>And of course, seeing my and my sisters&#8217; adoption pages got mommy on a roll. She and Taylor started wondering how awesome it would be for me to have a reunion with my 2 sisters. Taylor said that I would definitely remember them if I saw them. That got me thinking&#8230; and wishing, for a family reunion.<\/p>\n<p>As I sat wondering what I would <em>say <\/em>to my biological sisters, I wondered what they <em>looked <\/em>like today. One of them (I&#8217;ll call her Millie), looked very similar to me, except her ears were halfway up already at just 3 months old, and she had a very black face. She also didn&#8217;t seem to have as long a fur coat as mine&#8230; and no flyaway furs around her ears. My family almost adopted her, but she was so jumpy and forward at their first meeting. She didn&#8217;t know how to play the adoption game. They were also concerned about a second doggie upsetting Nala. They knew it would be very hard for her to accept <em>any <\/em>doggie into the family, but a jumping doggie would have the least chance. <em>I<\/em> played shy and sat quietly and innocently in my mommy&#8217;s lap. And when Taylor held me, I looked up at her with my light brown puppy eyes, and captured her heart. I remember daddy telling mommy and Taylor that it was up to them. I had to pull out all my puppy charm and win them over. I guess it worked, huh? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>My other sister looked nothing like Millie and me (I&#8217;ll call her Desi). Desi also looked like a Shepherd mix, but she looked like she had more collie in her. She was black, with spots of white and tan. She was also a bit smaller than Millie and I were. In fact, I heard that my family went to see Desi first. They thought she had such beautiful coloring, and almost took her home&#8230; until the foster mom said that at 3 months old, she was already very independent. She didn&#8217;t like being on a leash, and she didn&#8217;t care to sit in anyone&#8217;s lap. Her non-willingness to be close to my family on that day, worked out for me in the long run. Though, I did hear that if my family didn&#8217;t like either me or Millie, they would have probably taken home Desi. They were truly looking to add another doggie to their family that night.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/img\/blog\/June2011\/ThinkingAboutRelatives.jpg\" align=\"right\" alt=\"Thinking About Relatives\" \/>Score for me, &#8217;cause I did all the right things! My family loved me back then and they never regretted their choice. But they&#8217;re starting to wonder what my sisters look like now. Mommy wants to know if they have crazy ears like me, or if they love to lick <em>a lot<\/em>. Do they love running as much as I do? And water&#8230; can they not get enough water (drinking and playing in it)? <\/p>\n<p>There are so many questions to be answered. Mommy got the idea to email my foster mom and ask about my 2 sisters. All we know, is that they were both adopted soon after I was. Desi first, and then Millie. I&#8217;m sure they have different names now, as I do. Can you believe I was called <em>Blanche<\/em> for a few weeks? My family said I looked <em>nothing <\/em>like a <em>Blanche<\/em>. Teehee!<\/p>\n<p>So as of today, I don&#8217;t know what my sisters look like, or even if I&#8217;m ever gonna see them again. I won&#8217;t lie and say I wouldn&#8217;t be excited to see them &#8212; it would be great to run around and play rough with other doggies just like me. I have nothing against my furry sister, Nala &#8212; I love her. Unfortunately, she lived her life too long without experiencing all the wonders of living with another doggie.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll let you know if mommy ever hears back from my foster mom. I won&#8217;t hold my puppy breath, &#8217;cause I know what a long shot it would be to have a family reunion. But it doesn&#8217;t hurt to try. It never hurts to try&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Countdown:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Days until I&#8217;m 1 year old:<\/strong> 13 days, on June 18! <\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Days until we blast off into <a href=\"http:\/\/www.baileybegood.com\/home\/2011\/05\/19\/space-and-beyond\/\">space<\/a>:<\/strong> 23 days, on June 28!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/font><font color=\"#FF0000\">*Extra Woofies*<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I want to let you all know that I&#8217;ve changed the word verification for comments.
