I ended up at this video in a rather convoluted way following a link from Champion of My Heart to Patricia McConnel’s blog (I have her book “For the Love of a Dog”) and then onward to the video. I uncontrollably sobbed my way through it. I’m a bit emotional right now.

Java and I went on a walk Saturday morning and found a family and their dog enjoying that last breath of summer by splashing around in the river. There are still some pretty flowers that the bees are enjoying too. After our walk, I went to Home Depot to look for a plastic tray to…
Wrestle Mania continues at the Rose household. Ya kind of gotta wonder about the new addition. Is she cute? Or is she scary? Or is she just plain weird? Maybe all of the above. Java, Latte, and I have been taking our recent walks in the woods behind the nearby library. I had the idea…

Wow, that was powerful! It just goes to show we are put on this earth for a God given purpose. Finding that purpose is not always a smooth journey experiences bumps and trials along the way.
