all of your angels are so beatiful. absolutely stunning. they were so lucky to have a great mommy like you (and daddy) to love them and take such great care of them. thank you so much for sharing this beautiful story of your precious roses. wanted to share this poem with you...
For all the times that you stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that i so unconditionally gave to you, for the care that you gave to me so unselfishly, for all these things i am grateful and thankful.
I ask that you grieve not for the loss but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved, and touched each others lives.
My life was fuller because you were there, not as my owner, but as my friend.

Thank you so much, Connie. The poem is beautiful, and so are your words. I find it really comforting that, even though loss is difficult to bear, and it's something I never seem to get over, the love and memories are so strong. It may sound crazy, but with those I've loved deeply and lost, I don't think I'd ever want it to get easy to live with. The beautiful reminders of love really sustain me, and I can always feel the love deep within my heart. I know you always feel Nika with you, too. I am really praying for your Zowi. I hope the ultrasound goes well tomorrow. I appreciate all of your kind words. I always love reading your posts here, and I always appreciate you.
