They could never get on the same page about more children but Kristan had a strong desire to nurture. So in six months she collected four chickens two cats and a puppy named Smooch. Smooch's tongue was so big that it did not fit into her mouth and she used that tongue to smooch everyone she met.</p><p>Smooch was a bullmastiff a breed that was supposed to be calm not need a lot of exercise and be really easy to train. Smooch was the total opposite. She was one-hundred-percent love and not a good listener. She taught their family that love can be accepting and unconditional. This book includes anecdotes of Smooch's life with Kristan's family. It was not a long life but it was full of so many adventures and memories that she will cherish forever.</p><p><br></p>
