The Best Bathroom Wastebasket

Luv it! 💚💛💜
Never thought a new, simple, wooden trashcan could make me so happy and content 😁 

What's there not to like -- lidded, cute, handwoven, petite, lineable, unique?! My pets 🐾 cannot access the contents. Cover will keep waste items discreet and odors dampened.  The container sits regally on its "feet".  Wood-tone/rattan matches and complements our bathroom decor. Yay!

Get it soon. The wait time is longer, and the price for each has gone up by $30 since my purchase a couple of months ago

Yorkshire Terrier: Pablo @ 20 Weeks to 25 Weeks Old (Yorkie)

Pablo  🐾 Pup is getting bigger, cuter, calmer, but his bold personality comes through and has never left.  His loud bark is as persistent as ever. 

Thinking about neutering him soon. My Manicurist expressed interest in breeding him with one of her client's dogs. Yet even at six pounds -- smallish to me -- Pablo is simply too "big" to mate with a  teacup Yorkie. 

A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: 

but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

Proverbs 12:10

Foster Care: A Meaningful Simple Sign

 

I never thought a simple sign could mean so much.

In the parking lot at work, in addition to handicapped parking spots, we also have ones also reserved for expectant moms. I have passed by these spots day after day for years. I love what they represent and the heart to serve the moms here at Focus on the Family

As my husband and I started our journey of foster care and adoption, this sign started to take on a new meaning. I joked a couple of times that I would love to park there when we became licensed. But in all seriousness, I really wanted to. In a lot of cases, getting licensed to be a foster parent doesn’t come with “showers” or parties. But it is something to be celebrated! So, I reached out to our Human Resources and Facilities teams and asked, “When we get licensed, can I park in one of the spots?” The response was an overwhelming “Yes!”

Today I was able to park in the spot. My car pulled up to the curb, with a sign in front announcing that I am an expectant mom. I cried. Yes, I cried again. I have cried over a twin bed and am now crying over a sign. But I wouldn’t change these tears for anything. I am honored to be stepping into this role, and I pray for the children that will come in into our hearts and home.

This is foster care.

This is love.

I love you, Chai ❤

Posting this a day before our daughter's 2 kitties are to permanently move with her to NY.   The cats 🐱😺 have been with us for over 1.5 years, so the pain in our hearts is real.  Will they be okay?  Will they even remember us? Lord God, please take very good care of them now and in the future ...

Need a pick-me-up post and here it is from my favorite home decor brand, MacKenzie-Childs.  Meet the cutest bunny to date -- Captain Carrot!

I love you, Katcha ❤
