surgery

she doesn't want to do this

and knowing that it's right

doesn't help the nerves

or take away the fright

there's not much i can say

and not much i can do

but simply stay beside her

as we see this hard time through

wag your tail, it's wednesday

my mom and troy just left me

and i was all alone

there wasn't any happy

in our happy home

so dad sent me to karen's

he thought that would be best

he was a little worried

that i might get depressed

karen's house is heaven

with lots of dogs and toys

'cuz being a dog sitter

is what karen enjoys

with toys and friends to play with

the time went really fast

but i'm now glad to say this

i am home at last

home is still the best place

it feels and smells just right

and the people i call family

are my heart's delight

This is a touching story about making a scrapbook for Grandma. It also shows how easy it is to do with Studio J from Close To My Heart. I really love it and encourage you to take a look

Yes Photo

Yesterday, my mission in taking pictures was to take a picture of something that said Yes. This is my photo. Funny thing about it, I didn't say yes to the picture right away. It required pulling over on the side of the road. I knew it was the picture, but I drove right by. Obviously I turned around but why? Why didn't I just say Yes in the first place, in the moment. That is what I struggle with, saying Yes at the right moment, trusting it committing to it. Not letting opportunities pass by me (or me pass by them). It seems I need some exercises to build up these weak response muscles. Any ideas?

Another Yes Poem

God Says Yes To Me

by Kaylin Haught

I asked God if it was okay to be melodramatic

and she said yes

I asked her if it was okay to be short

and she said it sure is

I asked her if I could wear nail polish

or not wear nail polish

and she said honey

she calls me that sometimes

she said you can do just exactly

what you want to

Thanks God I said

And is it even okay if I don't paragraph

my letters

Sweetcakes God said

who knows where she picked that up

what I'm telling you is

Yes Yes Yes

Say Yes

Say Yes Today

Yes to Life

Yes to Love

Yes to others

Most of all

Say Yes to Yourself

Yes I am Beautiful

Yes I am of Value

Yes I have a Purpose

Yes I will

Be my true Self

Believe in my Self

Embrace my Self

and Love my Self

Say Yes!

not a small internal Yes

not a tiny whispered Yes

a confident strong Yes

Out Loud

Make sure you hear it and...

Believe it

Now - go out there and Be your True Self

The world needs You!

No Matter Where

even though we're in wyoming

and there's lots of room to roam

troy's favorite thing to do here

is his favorite thing at home

he has made friends with the horses

and chased some deer and geese

ran the fence with a new calf

and sniffed new smells on the breeze

but no matter what we do

nothing can compare

with a rubber ball and chuck-it

he is happy anywhere
