One thing that brings joy to my life is sitting with my kids. Also known as Willow and Chase, my miniature dachshunds. As a multifaceted crafter, reader, and creative person, I did not anticipate that life would make everyday tasks more daunting or difficult. I have lost a lot of motivation and inspiration when it comes to crafting or trying to write.
I mainly stick to book reviews for books that I get from the library or have recently purchased because it keeps me busy. But most importantly, it keeps me out of my own world and wrapped up in someone else’s.

However, my kids have been the constant element in my life that allows me to be present, laugh, feel joy, want to smile, and continue on despite the difficult hurdles that have manifested over the years. That’s with family, friends, emotionally, and physically regarding my disability.
Sitting with Willow and Chase, watching their playful antics and feeling their unconditional love, brings a sense of peace and contentment that is hard to find elsewhere. Whether we’re cuddled up on the couch or exploring the outdoors together, their presence fills my heart with warmth and joy.

In their simple yet profound way, they remind me of the beauty and simplicity of life, grounding me in the present moment and helping me find solace amidst life’s challenges.
As I navigate the ups and downs of life, Willow and Chase are my steadfast companions, offering unwavering love and support. They teach me the importance of cherishing the small moments, finding joy in the everyday, and embracing the love that surrounds me.
In their presence, I am reminded that happiness can be found in the simplest of gestures, like a wagging tail or a loving nuzzle. They are my source of comfort, my source of laughter, and my greatest blessings.
