It Does the Heart Good to Say Thank You

We're pausing this Memorial Day to remember the people we love and say thank you. Friends, family, teachers, soldiers...some we've known our whole lives. They've touched our hearts and helped shape who we are. Some remain anonymous, having given so much, so selflessly, for this beautiful country we call home.

For us, Memorial Day serves as a reminder to honor those who we miss as well as those who continue to inspire us and love us unconditionally. 


From Glogirly 
To her Dad,
"Thank you for showing me the good and joy in everything and everyone. And thank you for teaching me the power of optimism. You will always be my hero."
~ Glogirly

To her Mom,
"Thank you for inspiring me to study hard, dream big and love unconditionally. And thank you for showing me how the simplest of things can create the biggest of joys."
~ Glogirly

From Katie
To Gloman,
"Thank you for rescuing me, loving me and truly understanding me. And thank you for our private conversations and cuddles safe out of Waffles' reach."
~ Katie



From Waffles
To Glogirly,
"Thanks for choosing me to be your special small-man. And thank you for letting me get away with so much stuff because I'm cute. And handsome. Definitely handsome."
~ Waffles



From All of Us
To Our Friends & Readers,
"Thank you for smiling, giggling and sharing our lives with us. You mean more to us than you will ever know."
~ Glogirly, Gloman, Katie & Waffles

    Thank you for introducing Katie to Glogirly and suggesting that Glogirly write the blog in Katie's voice.

  7. We love these gratitudes! Thank you for making us smile, and letting us in on all the special moments in the townhouse, and now the mountain house!! We give thanks to our Nana Lou in heaven, our Papa Joe, Z-Girl, and all the people who help take care of homeless animals either on the street or in shelters. And of course, to all people who serve our country. Waffles didn't give thanks for chicken....is everything okay???

    1. LOL! Every once in awhile, Waffles has his mind on something other than chicken. We know, it's hard to believe!

      Thank YOU, sweet Z-Girl, for your love, friendship, and all you to do make the lives of the PAD Paws kitties (and your own furry family!) safe, happy, and loved. 💜
