This is my favorite time of year. The colours changing, leaves falling. The smell of the fresh rain as it turns the dust to mud. Birds migrating, heading south for the winter. We see a lot of activity at the bird feeder this time of year. Squirrels busy gathering what they can, as well.
The deer and the elk are hanging around on their way through the neighborhood. Hunting season is close at hand. They are getting smarter hanging out in residential areas. lol, no shooting allowed.
It's been a hard summer. This month started out really rough. A lot of prayers, have been going up with a ton of blessings coming down! Feeling pretty good about what's left of the year. It could end a whole lot better than it started.
As you remember I lost my little Miss Sophia, the day before Christmas. Which was also my Granddaughter's birthday. I wasn't able to afford to have her put down comfortably. So I had to hold her and suffer with her during her last couple days on earth. The memories still haunt me and cause me to doubt myself as a fur mom.
It was almost 8 months when Miss Chanelle was introduced into the family. I believe both Buster and Miss Sophia sent her to me, knowing how much I was feeling empty without either of them. Chanelle has become the heart of both of them. She has brought so much love and joy with her. She's even concurred the cats.!!
Just like the changing of the seasons. With life comes loss, as death looms through the plant life of winter approaching. Only to awaken and be reborn, growing again abundantly, with the warmth of each new spring.
Love comes again!
They are always in our hearts and their memories live on forever.
