#FBF: Sibe Strolling In the Snow

  FiveSibes Flashback ~ Wolfie ~ February 2022   "You are no longer where you were, but you are everywhere that I am." ~Victor Hugo   Oh, how I loved walks with my Huskies. Even more so when they were snowy walks. Pictured here, is Wolfie, and oh, he just loved the snow, as did all of my FiveSibes. Snow walks were the absolute best! Now, whenever it snows, I always think of my beloved FiveSibes having snow zoomies across our backyard, or going for pack walks in the fluffy white snow. Then there were the precious walks with Wolfie and Bandit after we moved and we were able to have mini-adventures exploring the new land all around us. Then one day, it was just me and my baby boy, and the great snowy north country strolls that helped to soothe both of our grieving souls. Now those strolls are no more, but all of these precious memories I will always hold dear, especially as the snow flies.     đź’› Memories Are Visits For the Heart đź’›       Join Us...
