Merry Christmas to the forever petparents

This is gonna probably sound sappy, but this morning, Mom and I were talking, and Robbie-do was being his normal cheerleader self, happy and bouncy and playful. We got to talking and I asked her if she thought he was happy or if he ever wondered about his former homes. She said he is very happy, and that he probably doesn't think about his other owners. And then, it just hit me, I said, "I've always been his owner, it just took him a while to come to me."

So, for all the people who've opened up their homes to being forever petparents, this is from Robbie and I. I've never thought how it applies to our furbabies


"Bless The Broken Road"

I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

[Chorus:]
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

[Chorus]

Now I'm just rolling home
Into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you.
