As promised yesterday, here’s a fun and simply feel good post. As luck would have it I was just sent this little video today – talk about providence.
The unexpected interactions among animals, at least as far as we’re concerned, continue to amaze and delight those of us lucky enough to see their antics, and often just their everyday cute behaviour. Whether it’s that Continue reading
