Wonderful timing with this post. I’m fostering dog #2 tomorrow with KK9R 😊 and I’ve already shared this with you before, but you and Simon were the ones who made me aware of them. I even mentioned you and Simon in my foster application lol. Seeing your foster journey definitely prepared me for what to expect, so I felt pretty comfortable knowing how it’ll be tough and rewarding at the same time.
Ooof. I know this one is about Si, and I loved hearing about the very beginning!! But damn, the lines about your relationship hit me like a ton of bricks. I'm still on the island and don't know how to jump in and swim to the city..
It was also that I had always lived my life based on whether I was ready or not. Growing up, I was painfully good – always the rule follower, always on time, always prepared.
What better soul than Simon to change being always prepared !! 💚💚💚💚
I am remembering all those early posts when I connected you and Simon and looked eagerly for updates and the whole story!
“Growing up, I was painfully good...” Ooof. That line made me catch my breath. It’s an unlearning process, but I’ve learned to be good, on my terms. It’s been so freeing. I can’t wait for Part 2!
"But then you get older, and grow wiser, and suddenly you want more. You want more than love, and you feel selfish for even asking. You want someone who pushes you, someone who inspires you. Someone who’s capacity would take a lifetime to explore." All of this!!
I truly love Simon so much. Baby Simon breaks me in half. Ha! I know the connection you speak of bc I have 3 dogs now and 2 that left pieces of themselves with me once they passed. I felt in each situation that this dog was part of my story and I was going to love them better than anyone else. And each time it wasn’t a great time to get a dog - so what? The best things happen in their own time.
I remember understanding the instant love you had for him. He is a very special dog. The bond you have now is marvelous. I am returning from a trip today and am ashamed to admit that I have missed my dog more than anyone else. They do inhabit our very being.

"He was about to change my entire life" I just love how dogs just do that in our lives 💚
They always do ❤️

You’ll figure it out exactly the way you’re supposed to ❤️
Checking back in to let you know I figured it out, exactly the way I was supposed to. ❤

He’s truly the best!
Yepp, definitely a sobbing mess. It reminds me so much of me and my girl, Willow. I knew right away she was going to be mine.
Some things are meant to be ❤️

Learning that we don’t have to be “good” all the time 💔
Love this!! Can’t wait for next week❤️
Yay!

It’s never the “right” time!
Love, love, love! 💕🐾
Love!
Good because I am soooo happy for you and Simon and your new love!
Thank you 🥹🥹
Lovely post. I felt the same exact way when I adopted my boy, Auggie, and it is inexplicable to anyone who doesn’t understand 💓
Yup, some things are just meant to be!
Oh sorry didn’t mean he wasn’t. Was just saying if he wasn’t keep the dog.
I didn’t take it personally! Just wanted to be clear 😂❤️

They are part of us!
I absolutely love this!!! It was meant to be.
