With a friend having lost his dog this week and my own dear Katy turning 13 this week, my thoughts have been returning to Bailey. It is hard to believe its been 5 years, but our dear boy crossed the rainbow bridge 5 years ago today.
I find it hard writing about Bailey because it reminds me of what is to come rather than focusing on what I have today with my other two. However, Katy is coming to that milestone birthday Bailey reached and rather than facing it with fear today I want to celebrate the great joy that both dogs have brought into our lives. It was brutal watching Bailey go in that last year but I can't forget his gentleness, his kindness, and his love of play.
I will always love you my dear boy.
A difficult anniversary, for sure, but you have such sweet memories of your lovely boy to cherish.
ReplyDeleteI know you are remembering all the great times. That's what keeps them in our hearts forever.
ReplyDeleteThose anniversaries are always the hardest. I can't believe it's been a year and a half since we lost Amber. Max is still hanging on but still misses his sister. He'll be 18 years old soon and I try to make the most of every day we still have with him. Give Katy extra hugs every day.
ReplyDeleteWe never forget our angels.
ReplyDeleteWe never forget them, they take a piece of our heart.
