CHRISTMASS!! (part 1)

Ever since I can remember, I would ask for a dog for every single Christmas and birthday. It took about 8 years, but I finally got one last Christmas. It has to be the best present that I have ever gotten. I'm sure that the amount of time that I had to await for this glorious gift, made me appreciate it so much more. I actually got my dog a few days before Christmas. I'd been dropping major hints to my parents on how amazing it would be for somebody to get a dog, and how it would be the best present ever. Out of the blue abot a week before christmas, my parents called me into the living room and showed me a few papers that they had printed off of their computer, that had facts about a dog named Wally that was at a rescue shelter up in around Poland, Indiana. After I was finished reading through the papers and looking at the pictures, my dad asked me if I was interested in driving up there the next day to go check out the dog. Of course, I said yes. Extremely excited, I could barely sleep as I awaited for the next day to come.
