Meet My Black Lab, Jaynah, Who Lives in Frederick, Maryland

She is the strongest and happiest dog in the world. Except when we leave her for vacation. Then she is still strong, but very, very sad.

Meet My Black Lab, Jaynah, Who Lives in Frederick, Maryland

Jaynah lived in Pennsylvania with us for a while, where she would tear up our lawn in her puppy years. We moved to Maryland and she was living her dream. She had so much land to explore and walk along. Even as she has gotten older and her joints bother her more, she still can never resist a good ole walk in the woods.

About Jaynah:

  • Age: 11
  • Weight: 108
  • Where she was born: Pennsylvania
  • Favorite food: Fresh Pet or Busy Bones (it's probably Busy Bones)
  • Current location: Frederick, Maryland
  • Nickname: Jaynah Bo Baena
  • Best friend: Either mom or dad
  • Favorite toy: Her fluffy lamb

4 Random Facts About Jaynah:

1. Has a benign tumor on her right side. It's been removed before but has grown back with no harm. Just a little extra part of her to show her strength.

2. Has a curly pigtail. When she's sad it will fall straight, but don't be fooled, her tail wags right back up into its curly O when we cuddle and play with her.

3. Cannot sleep alone. She always needs someone to lay with her. Even during the day, she will cry if no one is sitting with her. She loves her family very much and always shows it.

4. Barks every time we try to put her leash on. She will never not bark when we are ready to take her for a walk. Never. Not once has that happened. She is a vocal queen.



3 Places She Loves To Go With Her Human:

1. The woods on our property so she can sniff every piece of nature known to man and get nowhere on our walk.

2. Our deck so she can watch dad grill and almost burn herself while she waits for the food.

3. The front yard so she can lay down when we are literally a foot away from the door after a walk.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
