Lulu went to the groomers yesterday, so she would smell sweet and clean when guests arrive. A little grumpy afterwards, but it did not last for long. She has been my constant companion this week while I have been on vacation. And now, as Thanksgiving rapidly approaches, I reflect on the things that I am thankful for.
Lulu shows me daily how much she loves me, and wants to be near me. She came along, just at the right time for me. She has not replaced my wonderful Beth, but she fills the void in my heart. And, amazingly enough, she has found her own place in my heart as well. A place that belongs only to her. Her uniqueness, her funny disposition..... and her whimsical ways. I could not ask for a better friend.
I have been blessed in many ways - for that - there is no question. I was empty and lost after Beth passed away. Lulu, is helping me find my way.... and walking beside me each step of the way. Just as I saved her - she in turn, has saved me. And for that - I am truly thankful.
I hope each and every one of you, that happens across this blog, has a wonderful Thanksgiving. And remember, take time to reflect, and give thanks for all the little things you have.
