Roxie wondered what her new mom and house would be like. She was excited to have a sister to play with. When she saw her new mom come to the door, she felt happy.
Now came the difficult part. Roxie felt sad because she knew she had to say goodbye to her foster mom and dad. Her mom told her not to be unhappy, as she could visit them whenever she wanted. This reassured Roxie and made her feel very happy.
This is Roxie’s first ride in a car, and she even has a special doggie seat. Excitement grew as they drove up the driveway to meet her new sister and see her forever home. Her new sister’s name is Mina. They became great friends as they ran and played together, eventually getting so tired that they fell asleep side by side. They shared dinner and even learned to share the same bed.
As Roxie fell asleep, she realized that it didn’t matter what her new mom looked like, what the new house was like, or what color her new sister was. She knew she was loved by her new family, and that was all that truly mattered.
