Today is the first Advent and we lit the first candle with anticipation for what is to come. In our family the burning candle was also for our snuggle-loved puppy, Kingsley. He slept his way to the other side earlier today ... Our hearts are breaking and there is no end to my tears today. I only find comfort in that he doesn't suffer anymore. We were fortunate to be able to love him with all our hearts until the end. I am anticipating what may come with a broken heart. But it's in the crack of our hearts light can shine in.
