Well, today's #FlashbackFriday is a bit different...yes, I'm highlighting a fond memory photo above...but...we're all excited because my FiveSibes Jr. Tale,  Wolfie, What is the   Rainbow  Bridge?  that I wrote with my young grandson, just received another award! It was selected as a Story Monsters Approved book in the Religious/Spiritual category!   "What makes this book program so unique? KIDS assist our industry experts in judging submissions, so when a book earns the Story Monsters Seal of Approval, it means that children are recommending the book for other children to read, too!" ~Story Monsters®     The most exciting part was presenting my grandson with the Story Monsters' award medal and certificate! And today, he took the book, the award certificate, and his medal to school to show his teachers and to read the bo...

#Flashback ~ FiveSibes ~ 2012-2019  T his is a fun and nostalgic flashback…the editor/publisher at AmericanPet Magazine just sent me the above pictured hard copies of a few of the issues of her magazine that my articles were published in. I'm proud to say that my writing and photography is in 19 out of 20 issues beginning with Issue #2 ( the only issue my writing isn't in is Issue #1 ) - and eventually I was named co-editor of the magazine!

  FiveSibes #Flashback ~ April 2011 ~ Harley, Wolfie, and Bandit   OH, MY DOGS! If looks could talk! Well, they sure did in this moment! I always loved when my FiveSibes would rush across the deck to greet me when I came home. However, these were the looks I received one day from Harley, Wolfie, and Bandit when I dared to leave for a quick errand! Good thing I brought treats home so all was quickly forgiven. Whew! “The most important thing you’ll ever wear is your attitude.”  ~Jeff Moore     💛   Memories Are Visits For The Heart     💛 JOIN US  for our weekly #FlashbackFriday Blog & Social Media Hop!   The Linky tool below for the Blog Hop will open all week for you to join us and share pics from yesteryear or yesterday!

Pictured above is my boy, Gibson, in 2015 by a box we filled with toys and treats we sent to The United States War Dogs Association for working military canines.

My article was first published in 2023 in 4Knines .  If you missed it when it was originally. published, I do hope you enjoy reading my story here all about  K9 Veterans Day and some of our history's brave military K9 heroes... “When we pause to remember our heroes,  let us also remember our heroes with paws.” ~ Barbara Snow, Executive Director, U.S. War Dogs Association Chapter 2, Bronson, Florida   K9 Veterans Day is observ...
