    So sweet! This is a great contender, Tiff. Straight-forward with no commentary as required, but it's packed with sentiment. The combo of your photo and that last line give it real emotional impact! Beautiful. ❤️ ⚡️💕🫶

    This reminded me of Ahanu's squirrel friend! Or was it Ski's friend? 😅😅 I think the squirrel had a name but I can't recall it 😅
