Fubu,
It’s been exactly one week since you left us on March 10th 2012, to go on to Glory!
My heart is still very sad and my spirit solemn as I think on the fact that you are no longer with me.
At around 9:30am this morning, I began to reflect on the fact that one week ago this time you were still here.
You awakened very tired & slow while walking to the back door to go out and relieve yourself. Little did I know that when I let you back in the house and went back in my room for a little more rest, that it would be the last time I got to play with you, hold you, and look into your beautiful brown eyes while telling you how very much I love you! If I knew, I would have taken that time and never let you go!
I still can’t believe you’re gone! Can’t believe you won’t be coming around the corner any minute now to let me know you’re ready to eat (again) and boy did you like to eat! Never again will you stand at the front window while awaiting my arrival. Never again will you nudge me and let me know, “Mommy, I’m here”, when you see I don’t feel well or am sad.
As it got closer to 9:45am I was very cognizant of the fact that it was precisely at that time that the Lord called you home. And yes, even more sadness creped in, and the tears began to flow uncontrollably.
Fu, I am so thankful for the 13 years we had together. So thankful that you chose to come home with us those many years ago when we adopted you from the shelter. You could have chosen anyone, but you chose us! Thank You!
I love you so much Fubu and can’t wait to see you again in Heaven! Until then, stay the sweet baby you are! You’re free now, no more stiffness & no more pain!
Give lots of love to Big Mom-Mom, Big Pop-Pop and all our family and friends and I will see you soon! You are now and will always be my best friend, my youngest son, my Fubu!
Lovingly,
| Fubu |
