Ha!! I bet our friends in blogland have forgotten all about us. We definitely haven't forgotten about our friends. It's been so hard to come back to this blog to post...it reminds me so much of my big blue boy and the pain has been too great...even after all this time. I have enjoyed keeping in touch with some of you through FB and especially enjoyed "experiencing" your NYC DWB meetup with you via pictures and updates on FB!
I'll try to post some pics very soon! Willow has become a very high maintenance 150 pound baby. Echo is a super sweet almost 2 year old BIG girl. Halo is now 10 and her favorite past time continues to be sleeping. Lucy lives to be able to burrow under the covers of anyone's bed. Walter is sweet but a very noisy boy. And last but not least is a sweetie most of you haven't met; Mimi is a 3 year old chihuahua who came from the shelter after barely surviving there for 3 weeks. She's such a love!
I hope to slowly make the rounds and catch up with everyone! It's good to be back :)
I must admit that after Kai's death, I've had very little motivation to get on the blog. I've tried but I end up just sitting and staring at the screen. I'm working on a video of Kai's life and will post it here as soon as I'm able to finish it. I miss my big boy more than I can ever describe. When I call the dogs in from outside, I still find myself calling out to him. Of all the dogs, Lucy seems to miss him the most. They were best of pals and she's super clingy to me now that he's gone. I had asked Kai just two days prior to his death to please hang on until after my middle daughter's birthday. I could not have said goodbye on her special day. And he did just that.....the day after her birthday was his last. He was always looking out for me.....right up until the end......
I appreciated all the kind messages left on here during such a difficult time. I especially want to thank Behr Behr's mom for sending the nicest card in the mail. It's not often people take the time anymore to actually send cards but it truly made my day and meant the world to me. So, thanks again!!
