| What/who changed my life and why |
The death of my first husband..he was only 38 and had hopes and dreams, that death stole from him!! 7 months after he died...I realised 'my dream' and opened up my own store...a gift shop. I also KNOW that he led me to find my MOST BELOVED dog at our local shelter in Oct. of 1996. He sent me this dog to look after me...and 14 years later, in Dec, 2010,...my *most cherished baby* and I looked into each other's eyes for the last time...God Bless them both xoxo |
