I will be sharing about my life before and after Christ. I will include stories about my pet and other pets I have encountered.

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
