I will lend to you for awhile a puppy,
For you to love her while she lives
and to mourn for her when he is gone.
Maybe for 12 or 14 years, or maybe for 2 or 3

So your kids will be at spring break for longer than you hoped they would. School is out -and the way it looks like it will be out for a while. Leaves you with one question:
What to do with the kids? Continue reading
I love animals, what you see is what you get. We know which ones are dangerous, poisoned even. We know the ones we consider harmless, likable, even useful to us and our species. Some we take in as family members, the cute ones, the fluffy ones, others we prefer to hunt and eat. Continue reading
