Denise Knight I have a friend in Florida. Even though she lives a state away from me, she is always there to pray with me and listen to me vent. Our lives get so busy, that sometimes I fail to promptly let her know how much I love and appreciate her.

Denise Knight True friends are rare. If we have them, we should earnestly thank God for them. I have two that I know I can always count on. They are like my sisters. I am, daily, thankful for them.

Denise Knight What breed of dog is he? He looks a lot like my daughter's dog who is an Austra-Doodle. I want to get training for my German Shepherd puppy, but I don't want to take him to one of those places where you have to drop them off and leave them for 10 to 14...
