Ivy is my pride and joy. My constant companion. Where I am, she is. She has made my life as much complete almost as much as my own children have. She is also my built in alarm clock. to bad she doesn't know when the week-ends roll around, and that I don't have to be awake at 5am on those days or Holidays. She is very talkative and knows when something is wrong. She is the Queen of the castle!
