Some moms are covered in fur and claw marks
instead of whatever "regular" moms
are covered in.
How has your week been? I know that Mother's Day can be tough for some of us if we have recently lost. Today, let's be present with our stories and memories of the pets (and moms!) that we were such good pet parents too. If you can, share those stories with someone you love.
Come join us today if you'd like to talk, share, and be around others who understand.
Weekly Journaling Prompt
The most dogs I've ever had in my house at one time was 4, which was a handful to say the least. Did you ever have to babysit your mom, dad, or other friends' pets? How did they get along with your pet? Was it chaos and noise 24/7 or did they get along? Write a little about your pet's sleepover.
