Lola
In May of 2017, I was visiting with my daughter and we had just pulled up at the pet supermarket in town. As we got out of the car, we saw the animal control truck pull up and we both got excited, knowing we were going to be able to play with some puppies. We walked up and tried to get a sneak peek at the puppies that were being placed for adoption today when one of the workers opened a cage, revealing a scared brindle and white puppy. She looked to be around two to three months old and had the perfect puppy dog eyes as she locked eyes with me. The worker, I’m assuming sensed the connection between me and this puppy, picked up the puppy and put her in my arms.

What is Love?
Love is kind and trust. Love is compromise. Love is unconditional. There are many types of love. Love for your children is never ending and doing anything in order to keep them safe. Love for your partner is trusting them to do what they want and trusting them to think of you or your relationship. Love for your friends is unconditional supporting. Love for your family is just plain unconditional. They raised you and made you who you are today. Love for your family is taking advantage of the fact that they will always be there, because no matter what, they love and support you. Love is realizing you are taking advantage of them and finding a way to say thank you and show your appreciation.

A Brand New Life
This is the true story of the birth of my third daughter and the one who my heart hurts for the most. Writing helps put my mind at ease and that is the purpose of my writing. Names (everyone but the baby) have been changed to protect everyone involved.
