My dear ones,
I witnessed an honest to
goddess miracle this evening.
I am over flowing with gratitude
and relief - and want to
share it with you as it is fresh.
This evening at dusk,
I went to let the dogs out
of the kennel.
(In case you do not know this,
my dogs' favorite
game now is
to break out of the yard
and run around the
neighborhood -
my fence sucks and
none of my patching helps!!)
So they had been in the
kennel all day, and
they needed exercise.
I let them out and they
were running around.
I grabbed their bowl of water
and went inside to fill it
( I have no outside spicket
at my new house).
I came out 2 minutes later and
Christmas and Rose
were gone.
Cookie was there alone.
I ran to the
front of the house and
called to them and clapped.
They usually come right away.
I got to my driveway and
heard a thud and a yelp - just
like the one that killed
Buddy last year at this time.
My heart leaped to my
throat and I bolted down the
street.
As I ran I saw Rose
standing over Christmas,
who was laying on the
ground not moving at all.
He stayed like
that as I ran to him, calling to Rose.
Rose saw me and ran to me.
The person who had hit
Christmas was
stopping and turning around.
Then, Rose ran toward the house.
I looked up, and when
I was about 5 paces from Christmas
(who had still not moved at all),he literally
SPRANG up and started
running toward our house!
I was so shocked, all I could
do was run after him.
Anjana had opened the front door
(she had heard the yelp
from inside the house)
and called them,
and they ran right inside.
I came in
and immediately burst into tears.
Anjana and I must have hugged
Christmas for 10 minutes.
I kept inspecting him, wondering
about internal injury or something.
He was playing, running, eating,
peeing. He is totally fine!
He is sleeping earlier than usual.
I gave him some arnica for aches and pains -
I was thinking he must be sore!
It was as if Amma knew
I could not handle having to tell
Anjana that another of her
dogs had died -
and she breathed life into him.
It was
so sudden and strange
how he jumped up.
I just had to share it with
you all.
Needless to say, all three dogs
are sleeping indoors tonight, and I
will not let them be outside
of the kennel alone
until I have a new
fence. I bought an invisible fence,
but I have to return it.
I watched
the training video and it
is way too much for 3 dogs.
I am going to
see if my fence guy will take
very small payments, because
I have noway to pay for a fence right now!
Thanks for sharing in this miracle!!!

I couldn't resist sharing the above- my friend Kyrai and her daughter Anjana's joy :-)
