SHOUT OUT! to Laura Stamps, Pet Advocate

It’s not every day that I shout out someone’s birthday, but here we are. Laura Stamps, who I consider the ultimate pet advocate, and fun-loving poet and writer, has reached a new year! As some of you may know, she is a cat mom, specializing in helping rescue cats. She has a senior feline household and loves them up on the regular.

I also happen to know that she is a dog person, as well. And she celebrates this with her advocacy work.

I met Laura through her doggie books where she shares stories with prose poetry. If you want to find humor in your life, I highly recommend Laura’s books. Full disclosure: we have published three of Laura’s books but have read more. They are addictive. They are family friendly. They are educational and entertaining, all in one.

Here is Laura’s latest creation and you may want to grab a copy for your favorite person. Laura will even autograph a copy for you.

Spring Fever with a Touch of Easter

It’s almost Spring! And Easter is just around the corner, so I got myself into a mood to create a little video. Hope you enjoy it and my little poetic message. Are you ready for Spring? Do you have Spring fever? What activities to you look forward to in the Spring?

Lately, I have been buying a plant each week, since Valentine’s week. I have four now, all from Trader Joe’s. They are all lined up on my desk, waiting for it to warm up just a little more.

The birds have been having a wonderful time, especially in the mornings. They come by on the patio and sing while they gather nesting supplies. They are also keeping an eye out for my pots, which always have some things they take off with. I’ve been seeing this cardinal stopping by (not the one in the picture). Well, it is my late nephew, Michael’s birthday today. The cardinal is the bird to symbolize his love for the Saint Louis Cardinals baseball team. So, when I see the rare cardinal, I think I will just assume he or my other nephew, Keith, is stopping by. Heaven has two Saint Louis Cardinal fans, as I see it and add my dad to the mix.

Here is the video I came up with. Enjoy! And Happy Easter and Happy Spring~
