Puppy Therapy
We got our buddy Shadow when he was 7 months old and with some reservations on my end, I can say with pure honesty how thankful I am we did.
He has provided so much love in his 2 years that I can’t imagine what life would be without him.
We originally got him thiniking he might be a good therapy dog for my husband who suffers from PTSD, but the more time that passes, I am thinking he might actually have been brought into our family for me instead.
His love is unconditional where often times humans love is conditional.
He doesn’t care if I am having a good day or a bad day.
He doesn’t care if I laugh my way though the day or I cry my way through the day.
His love is steady and comforting.
Tonights encouragement is coming in the form of puppy therapy.
I shared a picture of my precious with the hopes he will give you a comforting awe moment as well.

I am a wife, mom, and daughter. I have served in the United States Army, gone to college, and received a Batchelor's Degree in Criminology. I married my husband when he was on active duty in the United States Army so I have the unique knowledge of what it is like to be on both sides of a Military uniform. I have been a wife for a lot longer than when I was in the Army.
While we were stationed in Germany, my daughter, who is 23 years old now was born and I chose to put my career on hold to be a mom and eventually a homeschool mom.
The past 15 years have been wrought with many struggles for various reasons, but it is as a result of those struggles that this blog has come about.
As the years passed and the struggle kept coming, I would say to God, "I'm not sure why we have to go through all of this, but if we have to God, then allow my story to serve as a means of encouragement to others so all this pain isn't for nothing."
Well, the years passed but the struggles never went away. I feel now is the time God wants me to begin sharing my story. It is my prayer as I share my heart that it will serve as a healing opportunity for you, my readers. Know you are not alone. There are hope and encouragement that waits.
