Go Where Love Goes...
Font: Giddyup Std, Monotype Corsiva
Journaling:
What a lovely thing to do
Spend my lifetime loving you
Planning days that bring us pleasure
Building memories we can treasure
Reaching milestones one by one
Sharing problems, sharing fun
Being close -- the best of friends ever
Making dreams come true together

Fonts: Black Chancery, Chubble

Journaling: Loving Anjana cradles the white tiger cub after acting as surrogate mother to him and his twin brother. This two-year-old chimpanzee clearly isn’t monkeying around, she has acted as a surrogate mother to leopards, lions, and orangutans. Anjana has been helping zoo keeper China York look after 23-day-old cubs Mitra and Shiva at TIGERS (The Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species) in South Carolina, USA. The chimp took on the crucial surrogate role after the youngsters were separated from their mother. She gives them a bottle and lies with them.
