Love me Tender.

Three years ago, I met the (four-legged) love of my life.



And he gave me something to look forward to every single day.




No matter how big he got, he was convinced that he was still a lap dog.






He always made me feel loved and wanted.







He was never intimidated by anything--never held back, no inhibitions.







He was my most loyal listener--and I was always willing to follow him anywhere.







No matter how much things changed, I always knew that he would be happy to see me, ready to say hello every morning and every evening.






All of this is still true today.
And he still is my best friend, my favorite playmate.
And he always will be.

I love you, Tucker.

Excerpts from Psalm 37:

"Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him...Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret--it leads only to evil...If the Lord delights in a man's way, He makes his steps firm; though he stumble, He will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand...Turn from evil and do good; then you will dwell in the land forever...The righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever. The mouth of the righteous man utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks what is just. The law of his God is in his heart; his feet do not slip...Wait for the Lord and keep His way. He will exalt you to inherit the land...there is a future for the man of peace.

"The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord; He is their stronghold in time of trouble. The Lord helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in Him."

Waiting. Praying. Trusting You.

Abraham was willing. So am I.
