My Katie,
The day I got you, and held you, you were so tiny. Your fur was shiny black and you looked up at me with those big beaty eyes. I always loved how your eyelashes were so long. You really were the cutest Miniature Schnauzer ever. You were our little watch dog, McScruffy, barking at anything that moved. The house was never lonely when you were there. You were our best eater.
The night you died, I wasn’t there, and I’m so sorry. You ran across the pool cover, and jumped over the fence before anyone could stop you and then you ran out in the street and got hit by a car. When we had your funeral, I cried so much, you were my first dog ever, and the closest thing to me that I’d lost. Every night I blow you 2 kisses. I’m so proud of you. I love you, Katie.
I will never forget you. I’ll never forget your beady eyes, or your long eyelashes, or how cute you looked when Uncle Pete shaved you like a poodle. When I look up into the stars, you are there. You’re constellation, made out of the biggest and brightest stars. You are so beautiful. Some nights I feel like you are laying down next to me, waiting to bark at something, I love you so much.
I miss you, and can't wait to see you,
