Now we have Ali. My husband thinks she is a reincarnated Shelby, both very Yorkie. I like to think Shelby whispers little things in Ali's ear so she knows how to fill our void. There are still differences and I love and cherish little Ali too.
I just feel like there isn't anything like a first Yorkie experience. It's like your first love. You will love again but there isn't anything like the magic of the first.
May time and memories help you heal, my condolences. |
Almost from the moment I met Felix I began to be so afraid of something happening to him. I was fiercely protective of him. I have to keep reminding myself what a good life he had, just again and again to try to get myself to stop being so sad.
I went through some of his close yesterday (my husband was fishing, so I could cry out loud, LOL). Some of his sweaters when he was just a puppy. Oh God, just painful. I washed his blankets yesterday, I kept one that still smells like him. Yesterday was pretty lonely.
I used to make jokes that Felix was going to lose all of the hair on his forehead because I give him so many forehead kisses. Never happened, but I gave it a good try.
I am sorry about your little Shelby, I see your username is like mine. I guess we will forever be Felix and Shelby's mom. =)
I hope I get a reincarnated Felix, or at least I get to see some of his characteristics surface in a future doggy.
