Wow, today is December 22nd, only two days till Christmas Eve …..
I was hanging the most recent Christmas cards that we received and decided to write up the card that I bought for Alvin.
Yes, of course he gets a Christmas card……
My eyes welled up and my heart felt warm and fuzzy as I realized just how much I love the little guy and my life.
I am so incredibly blessed.
I have an amazing family that loves me.
Some are near and some are far away.
But I treasure their love, and keep them close in my heart.
Friends, I am so blessed in that regard as I have too many to count.
Some from years ago and some just new.
I have always known that I am surrounded by Angels.
Some have four legs and others well just the two.
But nonetheless, I have them all around me.
I know just how blessed I am and how lucky and how fortunate.
My life is perfect.
I have great health, wonderful family and friends, a beautiful home, abundance all around, and a little dog named Alvin who in his own way loves me, too.
So each day is such a treasure and they just get better and better.
So when someone comes into your life despite their arrival ……. things always have a way of working themselves out.
After all, just about one year ago this four legged little creature came into my life.
He threatened to give me a nervous breakdown in the beginning but I can see now that it was “God’s” way of saying …… it won’t be easy.
This relationship you will really have to work on – each and every day.
He will rely on you 100% for all of his days on this earth.
You are his “pack leader” – his friend, his Momma ….
So lesson learned and I am stronger now than ever.
I treasure our days together and miss him whenever I have to go out.
He has taught me many things, likely number one is patience, a close second is LOVE.
I am so amazed at him.
He greets everyone, every soul, whether two legged or four with his “puppy dog” hello and a wagging of his little tail.
He loves everyone…….
I guess that is another lesson learned.
Spread the love around.
Love everyone ……. smile, say hello.
I wish you all the most amazing Christmas ever …… filled with “just such treasures” ….
Always, Carol
