It's hard to be brave when you're a wee girl, and there's something outside your window! This is from a story I illustrated a bit ago, and thought quite fitting, especially during such a busy week!

I've been so busy with my work, family and well, all of life really, that I've missed IF and posting! Hope I still have many of my dear friends here! Will be posting again as soon as I can!!

IF "Instinct"

I saw a news report recently about an abandoned dog and her pups at an animal shelter in Iowa. The puppies were quickly adopted, and shortly after, a litter of newborn kittens were left. The staff worried about how they would care for them all, when someone suggested leaving them with the mother dog. She immediately began to nurse, clean and care for them as if they were her own. It was a remarkable thing.

Though it was called "Tuna Surprise", the real surprise was what else it contained!

IF "Resolve"

"They were both decidedly stubborn! and it seemed that the matter mightn't ever resolve!"
