| My mom doesn't believe me. I thought it was sweet. I was planning to get Haruka on Friday which is two days ago, but the plan changed.. But my mom called me on Friday and asked me if I had her with me already. So then she started talking about toy poodles that she saw and how much she liked them.. blah blah blah... so I was telling her about toy poodle.. Then I told her that my yorkie is 1lb 4 oz right now. But then I got confused converting... SO I finally told her that it is about 560 gram. Then she would be around 1.5 kg or it could be a bit less. Which is 3.5 lb. She was like... "You are lying... 10 kg (22 pound), right? The baby weighs much more than that!!!!" and she went on and on.. so I told her.. that I would bring her one day!!! She has never seen yorkies or small breeds before... so I am sure she is curious. I wish I could get her a service dog... I am sure that it would benefit her in so many different ways... She is not doing so well.. and she can use some company.

| She'll believe you after you take a ton of pictures and share them with her! You need to get a little digital scale too just to show your Mom that Haruka is not 22 pounds. Have a great day tomorrow picking up your baby girl! You deserve it and you've been so patient waiting for her! |

| Translating weight and measurements from the US standards to metric is insane! No wonder you mom got confused! FE is right, send mom bunch of pictures! Oh! She's going to be a Yorkie Grandma!!!
