Dear Bella and Michael,

Happy Valentine’s Day to my two beloved Beagles! Bella, you’ve been my best friend since you were just five months old, and together we’ve navigated life’s challenges and celebrated countless adventures. Your adventurous spirit, from chasing frogs to kayaking, has filled my life with joy. Michael, though you spent your first six years in a research lab, your gentle soul and playful nature have brought new light into our home. Watching you blossom under Bella’s loving guidance for the past four months has been a true blessing for all of us.

I now have you both as my constant companions. You keep me company during workdays and encourage me to embrace the cold outdoors during our winter evening walks which you both love so much. Now we patiently wait for the warmer weather so Bella can teach Michael to chase frogs and balance on the kayak too. What fun you will have!

Your unconditional love and unwavering presence mean the world to me. Having you both in my life is a gift I cherish every day.

With all my love,

Mom xo
