It’s who you are now that matters, not who you were.

Don’t get so caught up in worrying about the future that you miss out on the present. She’s eating cookies, while the boys are worried about what’s on the other side of Pamela’s fence.
Be a Pearl, be here now.
Love the pictures and the captions. I have three dogs and a cat.
Thanks!
