The reason I KNOW this is because if I was ever upset when she was alive, she would jump up into the chair with me and smother my face with kisses. She did not want me to cry and I don't think she would want me to cry all the time now. I did adopt another baby girl yorkie not quite a week after she passed away. I almost felt as if I was betraying her, but I needed another baby girl to love so badly. I have two males and although I love them dearly, there was something special about my baby girl. I have renamed her Maxie. It probably sounds odd, but it sounds like Roxie and gives me some comfort. Their personalities are very different, but both were/are very sweet girls. It was as if it were divine intervention the way it worked out for me to adopt Maxie. She is around two years old, basically the same age as Roxie and needed a home. And I certainly needed her! So, when the time is right, you may open your heart to another. You will never stop missing Cole Bear or grieving for him, but it will give you another precious baby to love. |
You are not betraying Roxie I know I felt like that too, But you have so much love to give & Roxie would want another baby to feel & have the same love she had. There is so many out there that need that love. Roxie won't mind, just snuggle Maxie & @ the same time tell Roxie you love her too & miss her so ver much..
