Our home is so quiet, and feels so empty. But, one thing I have learned is that we are given grace enough to get through the day, and then tomorrow, there will be more.

I can't imagine what I would do without Kessi and the thought of how you must feel is breaking my heart. Losing a pet is more than losing a friend, it's losing a family member and just a horrible thing to go though. Our furry babies are with us for such a short time but they leave a giant mark on our lives and hearts. Know that Little Bit is now in a far better place over the rainbow.

I can sometimes even smell the scent of one of our long departed friends. Their memories stay forever. So very thankful to have had them in my life - so hard to let go!Nancy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15943803152558032507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-21785513380320792212016-10-03T13:16:38.622-05:002016-10-03T13:16:38.622-05:00I'm so glad to hear that. Love is the only thi...I'm so glad to hear that. Love is the only thing that sees us through...straight from God...through us...to one another. I have this beautiful CD titled "The Akathist of Thanksgiving," and one section of it that is sung says, "I am so small and inconsequential, but the Lord is with me. His loving hand is everywhere protecting me: Glory to You: for Your constant care of me...for the providential encounters with people...for the love of relatives, the devotion of friends. Glory to You for the gentleness of animals who serve me...for the luminous moments of my life...for the bright joys of my heart...for the happiness of living..." I love that the animals are included directly in the service. C.S. Lewis said that when we enter into immortality, we'll feel beneath our hands the familiar touch of the faithful companions who walked beside us through our earthly lives. I believe that. I still will be praying you through the gentle days for now...Cathy Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09032374496238223012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8691319772208152166.post-81639046077979021932016-10-03T07:54:16.671-05:002016-10-03T07:54:16.671-05:00I have felt every message that has been sent my wa...I have felt every message that has been sent my way. So many have reached out from all over the world. I am truly blessed. A friend suggested that I complie pictures and make a photo book. I sat down yesterday and pulled up a number of pictures. Of course I cried, but I also laughed, so very healing. Yes, cherish each and every day. Their little lives are just far too short.
