Fate...
 

Well, as everyone knows, I lost my precious She-Ra this week. As I was coming home from the vets Wed and got a call from a friend. It was weird, b/c I was getting ready to call her to let her know about She-Ra. Anyhow, I told her what happened and she said, "well it is a bad time, I will call you later." I told her nonsense, what is on your mind. She said, "well, remember I bred Kirby to Ms Redman's dog Sophie." I said yeah, She said she got pick of the litter, a female, and is not going to keep her, b/c she isn't home enough. And wondered if I was still going to get a second female. I almost broke down. I told her yes, most definitly!! I love She-Ra and will never ever replace her, but I do miss a froo froo baby, Harley really isn't in to the dress up. So anyhow, I am getting her next month when she is 8 weeks.

That is only half of it. My hubby's the aunt, the one I bought She-Ra from called me last night. She was telling me about Ms Redman's pups, and I interrupted her, and said I was getting the daddy's pick of litter. She said well I am so happy, b/c Sophie is She-Ra's sister and that is why I was calling you, b/c I thought you would like to have a close relation!!

I can't believe it!! She will be She-Ra's niece, so she will be extra special!!!!
I have already named her "Lowry's Isabella Blue", gonna call her Bella. She is so precious, warmed my heart when I held her. It was like She-Ra was smiling down and said "It's ok mom, I know you love me and always will, but this baby needs someone like you. I give you my blessing for her."

So, anyhow... I know I will never forget She-Ra, she is an exceptional dog, and there will never be another like her, but I feel like it is meant for me to get this puppy. It feels so right. It doesn't feel like I am trying to replace her, I can't really explain it.

I will post pics of her as soon as I go get some, I ran off and forgot my camera yesterday!!

Love you guys!

OMG I have tears streaming doen my face Im so excited for you and that is truely a blessing for you and your family and to know that she is She-Ra's niece. That is so special and warming for you can't wait to see pictures :love:

Oh I am so excited for you! I am so glad you are getting another girl. She wont replace She-ra but she will help your heart to mend. Cant wait to see picturess of your new furbaby.

That is such good news. I am glad you have something to look forward to and someone to "help" fill the void in your heart.

Wow!
 

I believe that everything happens for a reason. I had goose bumps reading your story. Bella is a beautiful name. I am so happy for you. And I'm sure your beloved She-Ra wants her mommy to be happy!

Amanda, what a wonderful note and I am so happy for you. Life really is full of strange twists and turns.

I do believe in fate and your story just confirmed my belief. That is most certainly a message from She-ra that it is okay to love another baby :) I am so happy for you. :)

You've got me crying over here...I'm soooo sorry you lost your She-Ra...
You getting Bella sounds like it's meant to be...And the bonus is that she's closely related to your baby She-Ra. Time will help with the pain of losing your baby, and Bella will help you through this too.

How wonderful for you!

Pot of Gold
 

Wow, Amanda, it sounds like this was meant to be. I know you hurt and you will always miss your precious little She-Ra, but sometimes there is a little light waiting at the end of the dark tunnel. Almost like a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

I am so very excited for you, the time will pass before you know it and you will have a part of She-Ra in the flesh.

Life sure operates in mysterious ways. I like the name Bella. It is very elegant.

I'm typing thru my tears. Your story was told with such grace. What a beautiful way to bring a bit of joy back into your heart. Loosing a beloved pet is so hard, but it really looks like She-Ra is smiling down on you. May these 2 pups have a very special place in your heart forever.

I am so happy for you! My Mom always says God doesn't close one door without opening another. You angel is watching down on you and is so happy for you.

OMG, I have chills reading this. I say God puts you where you are supposed to be when you are supposed to be there. Can you imagine how many things had to fall into place for this to happen? Yes, miracles do still happen. Congratulations!!!
