Today is our "Car" litter's 2nd birthday! This litter holds a special place in our hearts here at NduringPeace as they were born the morning Dante's father passed away. Dante's dad loved his cars and so Dante felt it appropriate that the girls all be named after cars. Dante's dad loved our dogs......its amazing how our God works. This litter being born the morning Frank passed has allowed Dante to look at these dogs and kept a little piece of his Dad with him everyday it has heped ease Dante's pain.
We have placed half the litter, we have one in Switzerland in a racing home, one in Colorado being used in a race team, one in New Hampshire and one in Vermont being used on touring teams, and one in Sarnia in a loving pet home. So in essence Frank's memory is being held around the world. That to me is pretty darn cool! Our girl Diamond is named after Frank's favourite car and she is one big love bug!! Dante always wanted a black dog with ice blue eyes...and he got 2!
God always knows what is best....we hold to our hearts very dear the scripture that says: All things work together for the good of those that love the Lord. While we may not know why we have to go through the pain of loss, God is still in control. Its the small things that at times brings the greatest joy. We have focused on the small things over the past few years to see the beauty in the valley. Choosing to remember the life and not the loss. We have made the decisions to follow our dreams, to live life to its fullest to embrace each day with whatever may be thrown our way. Some days are easier than others but getting up everyday ready for adventure is this journey called life.
