"It was sunny today. After lunch, we took MeeMaw to church for the assembly. Dad and I strolled around the area and came across an animal shelter. I had a strong urge to adopt a puppy, but of course, Dad said no. Many friendly dogs roamed freely. A Chihuahua lay on its back beside me, basking in the sun. I rubbed its belly multiple times, and it clearly enjoyed it. Time flies when you're around adorable animals—we ended up spending hours there."
