I don't know about things

This has been a weird week. Terri Schiavo died. I was really upset about the whole thing that went on with that and how it was all portrayed by the media. Now the Pope dies. He was elected shortly after I was married. He was a great man.

I had a major meltdown and took a day off work because of it. The stress of stuff really got to me and I needed to have a good cry. My knee hurt too so it was good to be off. I spent the morning at my mom's house and talked and cried. It helped a lot. I ended up going out to lunch with my parents. It was really nice. I had a real sense of peace after it all. I was very thankful.

Denise, my friend and the mother of Sophia Grace, visited us with Sophie. She is seven months old and the most beautiful smiley happiest baby ever. Amy adored her. She giggled and laughed when Amy talked to her. We love this little girl who we prayed for a lot before she was even conceived. She is a real answer to prayer and what a blessing for Denise and Martin.

Tonight my sister in law called and she was having a hard time. They had to put their wonderful 16 year old dog to sleep 2 months ago. He was one of their kids and was greatly loved. She misses him so much. So many people don't realize just how important pets are and how much they mean to their families. People don't mean to be mean but they brush off the grief as over reaction. That is so wrong. I had a friend who did pet grief counseling. I heard her talk about the clients and reactions. I know the trauma that is suffered.

My aunt lost her beloved cat and was heartbroken for a very long time. God made pets to love and care for us as we care for them. When your beloved family pet member dies, it is a very painful thing. I will never blow off the grief because it is for a pet. There is too much love there and I endorse love.
