Sunday thoughts
That face! I’m holding this little guy a little tighter tonight and feeling grateful for the love he brings to our lives. The time we have with pets seems way too short sometimes, and begs the question “is it worth the pain you will experience in the end?” The answer will always be yes. Each…
