Updates on the family (furry and nonfurry!)

Hello to all you fellow yorkie lovers! It has been way too long, and I have had such a crazy past couple months! 
So my husband left for Iraq in April, and now the countdown begins for him to come home! I always know it's about time when I start staying up past midnight, and sleeping in too late! We are all missing him like crazy. Lily and Colton, my kids, are doing better. They of course miss their daddy, (ages 2 1/2 and 1 1/2) but we have definently been keeping busy!
Sadly Duchess, Daisy's daughter, passed away in June. She is missed very much. I am thankful for her not having to suffer long at all, liver shunt often will cause prolonged suffering. Now she can chase all the kittens she wants! We love you Duchess!
We welcomed the newest member into our family on July the 7th. Dixie finally had her litter, of 1, but he is a healthy little boy, and I am grateful for the absence of complications! I still have no idea on what to name him, anyone have any suggestions??
Georgie may also be a daddy again, my friend brought over her girl, Casey, and we are praying for a healthy litter... this will be Casey's first. I think Casey will be a good mommy.
Also, I have been debating on whether to keep Katy or not. I love her so much, but at 9 months now she weighs 3 lbs 1 oz, and I had intended to breed her. God knows I have enough pets, so can I keep her? Or should I find her a new home? I know I would cry if she left. I nursed her back to health shortly after I bought her, she nearly died from a severe case of coccydia and kennel cough... and since then she has been very dear to me. I wish there was an easy way to decide, but it is a tough decision, and those are always the ones that take the most time.
Onto other unrelated-to-yorkie news, I would like to take this time to express my thankfulness to God for me and my children's life. On April the 27th we were in a tragic car accident, and unfortunantly the other driver lost his life. To this day I have no clue how myself and my children made it out of the car that day, but we did, and I know God was watching over us. It was a head on collision, at 65 mph. My kids were unharmed, and I only had minor bruising and cuts. Dealing with the aftermath has been stressful, to say the least, but I now cherish every moment I get to spend with my family. Life is such a precious blessing, and I realize how terrible it is to waste it.
I want to wish everyone a great weekend. Hug all those lovely little yorkies for me!
God Bless You All!
