I was typing my post when this was written. If it brings you comfort, leave her things there as long as it brings you comfort. My classroom has wall to wall photos of my students over the 28 years that I've been there. Scattered among all of them are a few photos of my Rainbow Bridge babies, and they are there to stay. I have one Gund stuffed animal, the Boyton Little Monster, that my dogs loved so much that I bought twenty of them when they were closing it out at the Gund outlet. That sits on my desk. I am very sentimental, and these bring back great memories of a life filled with love with my girls.
I'm so sorry for your loss of Haillee. I can feel all of your love in your written word.
