Another Perfect Memorial Rose

My favorite flower shop to pick up a single rose is Hammaker's on Market Street in Camp Hill.  They have big beautiful roses with beautiful greens and baby's breath at the best price.  I tend to go on the Friday's before a big show and I get to pick from lots and lots of flowers.  It makes my heart smile just a little to buy a rose in honor of my beautiful little girl.










We're coming up on the anniversary weekend that we brought Tink home...I've been scrap booking our journey with her and there is something very therapeutic about this whole process.  I thought for sure I would be a blubbery mess, but instead I get lost in all the amazing memories and I'm too busy recreating them through my book to be upset.  While I'm scrap booking and in "the zone" it is easy to forget that it's Molly on the couch and not Tink.

I was sitting here on the couch with Molly this afternoon after I woke up from my comma of sleep. (of course I'm sick on my 3 day weekend...)  She had snuggled in to me and I was petting her as I often did with Tink.  And it suddenly dawned on me that this is how it is now.  That may not sound like a big epiphany, but for me it was.  I pour so much into my girl(s) whoever is here and it's still slowly dawning on me that now it is Molly.  January 15th marked Molly's 5th month with us.  She's still adjusting and adapting and becoming more and more comfortable with us.  She lived with another family for almost 11 years, of course it's going to take time for her to blossom here too.  I love these little old ladies so much.  I am so glad that we get to be a part of their lives and process...
