Comforting words

Comforting words from my daughters:

my beautiful daughters

“Zap was such an angel and angels live in heaven.  Monster will take care of him.  We will think of the happy moments with Zap” – Sydelle 

 “Don’t be sad, Mom.  Monster will be there for Zap.  You need to find your happy place.” – Shaye

A Special Place

|

Sydelle's drawing_tribute to Zap.jpg

You have a special place Dear Lord
that I know you’ll always keep
A special place reserved for dogs
when they quietly fall asleep
With large and airy kennels
and a yard for hiding bones
With maybe a little babbling creek
that chatters over stones.
With wide green fields and flowers
for those who never knew
about running freely under
Your sky of perfect blue.
Lord,I know You keep this Special Place
And so to you I Pray,
For one Special Rottweiler puppy
Who quietly died today
He was full of strength & love
and so very, very cute.
He is dearly missed my Lord
By a very good friend of mine.
He went to join his ancestors
To Your land that is Devine
So, speak to Zap softly please
And give him a warm hello.
He’s a Special gift to you Dear Lord
From Pat, Jan, Sydelle and Shaye, who loved him so.

Zap-1

RIP our beautiful angel!

Valentine Zoo – Karl Fuchs

|

I’m an animal lover, I’m happy to say.

And I love them and pet them most every day.

So for you, Valentine, I thank heaven above,

Because you’re like the creatures I love,
You’re cuddly and cute as a warm, playful kitten.

With your animal nature, my love, I am smitten.

You walk like a lioness stalking the plain,

With your dangerous eyes and your beautiful mane.

It’s such a pleasure to pet you, as you sigh and you purr,
I run my hand over you, like stroking your fur.

I’m a strong Alpha wolf, with you at my side,
Sharing love, food and shelter, and feelings of pride.

These feelings of animal love we can share,

As I find different ways to show that I care.

So won’t you please be my own private zoo?
My Valentine, I love to play with you.

New Year’s Toast

New Year’s Toast

By Joanna Fuchs

Here’s to the new year…

frohes-neues-jahr-0027

May it bring more joy and success
And less grief and regret.

To our dreams…

animated-sheep-image-00271
May we never stop believing in them
And taking the actions that will make them a reality.

To our friends, loved ones, associates (or colleagues)…

friends10
May we take the time to let them know
How much it means to us
To have them in our lives.

Let us encourage more and criticize less,

friends11
Give more and need less.
And whenever we can,
Let us create harmony and peace.

frohes-neues-jahr-0076

Let us start fresh, right now,
To make this the very best year ever.

A very Happy New Year to all of us!

Joke of the day – New Year Prayer

|

Dear God,

So far this has been a great year!

I haven’t gossiped about my friends.

I haven’t lost my temper.

I haven’t been greedy, grumpy,

nasty,

cruel, or rude.

I’m very thankful.

But in a few minutes, Lord, I’m going to get out of bed,

and from then on

I’m probably going to need a lot more help to get through

the New Year.
