Remembering Rosie

Two years ago this weekend we lost our little Rosie. She was a wonderful little girl who came to us at the age of seven from a life at a puppy mill. It took her a little while to learn to trust us but once she did she was the perfect little companion. SO sweet, SO cute, SO loving….. We miss our little Rosie Posie Puddin’ and Pie and think of her often.

She was such a princess that she had two vehicles.

We love and miss you Rosie!

And speaking of cute……one of my adult students sometimes brings her little one with her to class and she paints too! This is her little snowman from that evening. Cute, huh????
