Also I'm surprised that people ask how much I paid. When asked how much I say "Not nearly enough for the amount of happiness he's brought me" I was curious as to others being asked these questions and how you handle them? |
Great answer! You adore Walter, so it's the truth.
I felt the same way when I first had puppy Max. My head was in the clouds, I loved my little guy so much, so my response was more like, "What? Huh? Isn't he cute?!"
Same thing when I brought home his brother Teddy a year later.
