They just delivered her ashes to me. A beautiful little box with her name engraved very nicely on top. Her paw print and her kerchief that she had on when she passed (she had a whole collection for every holiday), a lock of her hair and a copy of the tear jerker "Rainbow Bridge". We lit our Advent candle in her honor tonday and each of the kids shared something they loved about her. It's so hard to stop the sniffles cause there are so many of us here in this house and everytime one of us gets reminded in some way of her, we cry and before you know it we're all crying! I do notice that every now and then one of us will be able to tell a funny story about her and it'll make us laugh (right before we cry!). Thank you all for your prayers, my comfort is that I know that she could not have been more loved than by us. I can remember the little flea infested, worm infested 10 wk old pup that we brought home and wondered what the heck were we thinking? The furniture we went through, when she dug up our newly installed sod, all the little bumps and bruises that we all had through her very hyper puppy days. The trips to dog beach where it took forever to find a parking space and then walking such a long way, were all worth it just to see her frocklying amoung the waves. She is forever in our hearts and will be forever missed. |
