Another Special Day!

Oct10

Hi, tween girls! Did you know that today’s Plush Animal Lovers Day??? If not, I didn’t either! It’s a day to give extra love and care to your favorite stuffed animal. They sure think of everything, don’t they?!

My fave, growing up, was Bunny, and I slept with her every night. She was soft and cuddly with very long ears and about half the size of me! I loved and treasured her and loved holding her tight. She was such a comfort to me.

I’m sure you have a favorite stuffed animal, too, who does the same for you! Maybe a puppy or teddy bear or bunny like mine . . . I’d love hearing about yours, too:)

Just like our stuffed animals give us sweet comfort, know that God, your Heavenly Father, does the same for us, too. Isaiah 41:10 says God is always with you and to not be afraid. I love that! That He’s always with us, and loves us, and loves to comfort us, too! So if you haven’t already, just invite Him into your heart. It’s that simple! And when you do, just know that He’ll always be with you, and what could be greater than that?!

So on this Plush Animal Lovers Day, how about grabbing your favorite stuffed animal and giving her extra hugs or squeezing her all day? Or maybe taking her out for breakfast, or a day in the park, or reading your favorite book to her.

Whatever you do, have a sweet, fun day, and remember, God’s with you, too!

Yay for National Pet Day!

Apr11

Hi, tween girls and especially pet lovers . . . Let’s celebrate! It’s National Pet Day today!

For those who have pets, what kind is yours? A dog? Cat? Turtle? Or rat?! There are so many kinds! And maybe you have quite a few!

Maybe you’ve had one your whole life or even just got one yesterday. Whatever the case, pets are sure fun and making special memories with them, maybe even when they get in trouble! And they’re sure to be treasured once they’ve gone to pet heaven, too.

So what memories do you have? I’ll share a few of mine . . .

I was in the 1st grade when I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom in our newly built home, when I saw a tail in the bathtub . . . a mouse tail! Yikes! It woke me up fast. So we soon got a cat and named her Rummy for her rum-colored coat. I remember she’d always pounce on my bed when I was in it, which I didn’t like, but when I wasn’t feeling well she didn’t do that and continued laying by my side . . . wow . . . I loved that! How she just must have known.

Another memory is when Rummy had kittens. We didn’t see it all happen, but once it did, we discovered five little kittens snuggled in a small cast iron frying pan in the basement on the laundry room floor. So sweet and a perfect spot!

Genesis 2:19 tells how God created every animal. He thought of everything, didn’t He?! They are all so unique!

I’d love hearing your stories . . .

So Happy National Pet Day to you! And it’s a must that you celebrate, doing something special with your pet that’s out-of-the-box fun, and then tell us about it. How about posting a pic of it, too?!
