She sounds like every Yorkie I've ever had - special dogs in the memory department. They are intelligent little toots and remember things you tell them most of the time. Yorkies excel at remembering - at least all 3 of mine have been. If Tibbe does something good when stopping doing something I tell him to stop or just does something he should like bark when he hears an odd noise at night and I tell him Good Boy, let me finish this and I'll get you a treat.....he'll go lie down and wait until I'm done and then he's up and waiting expectantly and urging me to get into to the kitchen for his treat - even an hour or more later. He remembers promised playtime with his toy like your Lola, too! He never forgets promises made unless he goes to sleep while waiting for me!

If some night I tell Tibbe someone is coming to see us tomorrow as soon I get off the phone, I swear he remembers that the next morning. Maybe I act differently the morning we're going to have a visitor and do things with more purpose or I hurry through things more or I don't know, but my little guy is just as happy and boisterous and running to repeatedly look out the front window that next morning almost from the time he wakes up and all hours before the visitor is due. Somehow he just knows or - remembered - or something. But he knows someone is coming well before I start getting dressed or sprucing up the house for a visitor.

But that little cutie Lola picking up and returning her grandma's glasses to her sounds so cute I pictured that in my mind - that tiny little Yorkie standing up on Granny's legs and offering her glasses back to her - just so sweet. I'll bet both you and your mother were floored when you saw her doing that and she got lots of praises. What a good girl she was!
