Mondays with #murphymiguel are my favorite. We have been working at LHRC for about a month and a half and it’s the highlight of our week. If you haven’t found a reason to love dogs (I can’t imagine, but there are folks out there), watching them do this work would do it🌻

🚨 Murphy Miguel Update 🚨
Murphy has been working in board meetings, w/ volunteers + hospitals. The last picture is him post-training (we were working on “chin,” a command that helps folks with limited mobility); this picture shows him thoroughly enjoying being a dog 🖤 #murphymiguel #therapydog

Happy Birthday Baby Lu! Thankful to your papa for trusting me to be your Mother Goose for 9 months. GC surrogacy was a journey, and I’m so glad I got to share it with you 🤟🏼

Mi-Ya, dogs and books are the 3 loves of my life. With some newfound free time having closed the bar for a few weeks, we headed up to Birchbark Books in Minnesota for a photo session with Jaida Grey Eagle.

Murphy Miguel got his badge- he’s ✨ official ✨

Murphy got to work this morning. A woman who had always wanted to pet a dog but was too scared kept staring at him; she decided that, as long as he was lying down, she could pet him. By the time she left, she was giving him ear scratches and waving goodbye. It was a really sweet moment.

As the U.S. shifts into a volatile political landscape targeting critical thinking, I want to share an important reminder to the #booksky community:

The only way to preserve literature is by collecting physical copies.

I know, Kindle users, it sucks—but your digital copy can be deleted any time.
