Beatriz Torres, 41, from Miami, took to TikTok to share a touching moment with her beloved Australian shepherd cross, Indie. During a baby shower for the mom-to-be, a pack of spirited children romped around with Indie. This left the dog utterly exhausted.
In the midst of Indie’s post-playtime slumber, Beatriz couldn’t help but reflect on the blessings bestowed upon her growing family. “Thank you! Please come back soon!” she wrote, overlaying the video with text. Her voice laced with gratitude and warmth. Even amidst the excitement of a very tired dog and the impending arrival of a new baby, Beatriz found solace in the simple joys of life’s unexpected moments.
Beatriz said, “They played with her, she chased them, and when a few got tired, there were another few still playing, so she was at it for eight hours. Other times, it’s taken her one day to recover, but this time, she needed four, which was a nice break for us, not gonna lie.”

As she gently lifted Indie’s paw, feeling the weight of the exhaustion that settled upon her faithful companion, Beatriz was reminded of the timeless wisdom found in Ecclesiastes 3:1: “There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens.” In this moment of rest and reflection, Beatriz embraced the divine timing of life’s ebbs and flows, finding peace amid the whirlwind of preparations for parenthood.
Who would have thought that a simple act of play could unfold into such a heartwarming gift? Amid life’s hustle and bustle, moments like these remind us of the beauty and joy in the unexpected. For that, we give thanks.
Thank God for the gift of human kindness, for the small gestures that brighten our days and lift our spirits. In children’s laughter and the wag of a dog’s tail, we see glimpses of His love and grace in our everyday lives.
May we never underestimate the power of a kind word, a gentle touch, or a playful romp with a furry friend. In these moments, we find solace and joy and know that we are never alone on this journey called life.
