holding light
the way it happens
when a heart opens
in this new, quiet landscape
where angels can be heard

We are staying positive for the dogs and they are a great help in filling us with hope for the future.
We hope you all stay well and healthy and wish you a peaceful Thursday and a beautiful rest of the week,
with love from Eivor, Pearl and Xenia xxx
