When it’s too cloudy to see the solar eclipse, you take matters into your own hands and create one. I call this a total eclipse of my heart. ☀️ 🌕 🤍

Do you know the joy of an animal finding you?

I wasn’t looking to add an animal to our herd when a message popped up in my DMs asking me if I’d be interested in a mule. But, one look at Moses and it was love. 💕 This guy brings so much joy to our lives and we are forever grateful that the stars aligned to bring him to us. 🌟
This is my True North.
