The day she passed we were feeding her baby food because she had stopped eating and she even has the 1/2 eaten container of baby food in her room. I am working on making her understand that it will eventually go bad and we need to maybe discard of the food and wash out the container. I want to do something special with the container for her - if anyone has any suggestions please let me know!! I feel like if we make the container something special she may be ok with getting rid of the left over baby food inside.
Also, my friend has offered me a 3 pound male yorkie and I am so torn on the thought of that. It is not that I don't want him, I just don't know if I am ready for that right now. A part of me wants to run get him right now and another part of me is not ready to get attached again. What are some of your thoughts on that subject? I would love you hear from you - thanks! |
OMG! How thoughtful, and smart, your daughter is!!! What an angel. Children never cease to amaze me how endearing they are. Sorry, I can't be of help in any suggestions on how to do something special with the food container.
Just a thought - before I got my real Yorkie, my children went to the 'build a bear' shop and they built a Yorkie dog. It's funny now that I have a real Yorkie, as the toy one is bigger than Bailey
They are both in my avatar. He uses it as his 'play' buddy. I wonder if you have a store like that in your area, and whether your daughter could name it Twisty and still have her by her side?
How sweet of your friend to offer up a 3 yo Yorkie to you! A new Yorkie will never be Twisty, but I wonder if the male Yorkie would take some of your family's pain and turn it into heartwarming energy in a new dog... and perhaps some laughs at the antics of the new dog? All the best to you and your family!
