Our girl is 3 today! Well, actually we don’t know her birthday, but we choose to celebrate today, because we wanted to change a bad day into a good day.

Today is my 2nd heart attack anniversary (bad day) and so we chose to celebrate Finley’s birthday today (good day).

Fun facts about our girl:

 

• She has many names: Finley, Finn, Finn Finn, Finnery, Finn Finnery, pretty girl and T-Rex (because her head is huge) and when she’s being bad: bad egg, you little punk, bargain puppy, little weasel.
• She was named after a little boy who suffers from congenital heart defects. I found his mom’s blog during my recovery. His mom is such a heart warrior for her son, Finn and her example of Finley, kept me going during the hard parts of my journey.
• Finley has a funny run when she has stolen something, where she runs quickly with her ears back. But she always stops by where her treats are, because she knows if she drops it she will get a treat.
• Finley loves hangers, remote controls, my phone and anything in my mothers purse.
• She’s also known as Nurse Finley when I am home from the hospital recovering, because she lays right next to me and doesn’t leave.
• She’s made us laugh more than we can count.

Happy Birthday Finn!
