Moments with Mom D – 2-12-17

“Moments with Mom D” – 2/12/18

(From Cosmo) “My first Valentine’s Day with my fiancé was in 2004 and it was amazing,”  That January, I’d been looking online for a puppy and found a little Chihuahua I loved.  I wanted to find out more information about thdog but had to work, so my now-fiancé said he’d call and talk to the breeder for me. Later, he called to tell me the puppy had been sold. I was crushed. A month later, on the day before Valentine’s Day, I walked into his apartment and found a card waiting for me. As I was reading it, his dog came running towards me. I started playing with him and then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw this tiny little dog run past me with several bows around his neck. I started squealing as my fiancé said, “Do you recognize him?” He had not only bought my Chihuahua, Tony, but had arranged for him to be driven from Missouri and had picked him up at 1 a.m. Tony is the greatest gift anyone has ever given me — and that Valentine’s Day remains the very best one of my life.

Mom’s advice: “Remember to share love on Valentine’s Day in your own special way.”
