Svaha Spirit Sunday ~ Find your own Way
August 8th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Inspiring, Jacquie's Posts, Svaha Spirit Series~Sunday
Although this is a beautiful tribute to a wonderful dog, there’s also an incredible message for all parents in here. My youngest just graduated from high school and I want her to know that whatever she chooses to do in life she’ll always make me proud. You can’t make someone be or do something they’re [...]

I met Samantha about a year ago through a good friend who had met her through the Make a Wish Foundation.
