Gifts of JOY

Everywhere I go lately I’m given the gift of joy….literally! My amazing silly know my love language friends keep giving me gifts with the word JOY on them. I can’t tell you how fun this is for me…they find the coolest stuff with the word joy. So today I thought I would just share the JOY J

This letter came with a few of these gifts of joy. It’s so touching and explains the heart behind some of the gifts... so I just had to share it.

I’m truly a blessed woman to be surrounded with such amazing friends!

About the Author

Anna started blogging to share her love of photography through the antics of a pack of dogs. She and her husband Richard fostered and rehabilitated many animals through the years as they shared a truly enchanted life in the world of dog rescue. Serving God in this very unique way became a life of great joy for them both. In August of 2012 Richard was suddenly and unexpectedly promoted to Heaven. With that heartbreaking loss a new journey and season began for Anna. One she now shares openly in this blog. The journey is real… sometimes raw and sometimes downright heart wrenching, but also filled with hope and encouragement that there is life after suffering such great loss. She continues to share her journey through the antics of the pack and the love of the lens. She does this because the heart of a rescuer is the heart of a rescuer….whether it be two legged or four legged they want to see those who suffer set free from their pain. She hopes by sharing her journey that it may somehow comfort others and help them to “live like someone left the gate open”...FREE! Anna always believed every dog they cared for had a story and because they had made it into rescue that story had a “happy ever after”. Now through the strength she draws from her faith in a God that has been relentlessly kind to her…the love of her family and friends and of course through the crazy antics of a pack of dogs… she is learning to believe she still has a “happy ever after” as well. Thank you for stopping by and sharing the journey with her.
