Another great song and video from friend-of-the-blogger Randi Breese. She describes her new song, “Colors Fill the Sky” this way: I wrote this song in hopes that it would bring healing to those that have lost a beloved pet.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
