Mortimer-Boo by Barb Schank / Mumma

How can words describe such a loss…..
We never had children, so we thought,
We had 4 legged ones!!!!
First your Mother, Krickette, who we lost a few ago.
Now you Boo Boo.
God puts beautiful creatures like you and Krickette, on this earth to bring us PURE JOY!!
Until the day we part, then it’s complete sorrow..
I will never forget you Boo, the day you were born, I was the reason you LIVED. Then the day your beautiful, loving heart stopped so suddenly, I held you, and told you how loved you were, to go be with your Mother. But wait, I am your Mom. I want you here…. Never forget how much so many people love you, and hearts broken. Shania, your Pomeranian buddy, little girl friend, misses you so..
She is so quiet, and we worry.

We wish to get her a “new” buddy. But, think we are trying to replace you. That could NEVER ever be, so Mortimer, when a new puppy comes into our home, don’t think we forgot all about you…. We know how much love we can give another beautiful, special puppy, BUT, it will NEVER, be the same. Every time a motorcycle goes down the road, I will still say, “Boo, go get that motorcycle” I will have tears in my eyes, for sure. And every time I see Shania spin in a circle, begging for that beloved cheese, I’ll know that a part of you lives on, as you taught her to do that.

I pray that the new puppy will learn that from Shania, as to ensure your “spin around” win never die…
Be sure, that in my heart, is a little corner, and it says, Krickette, and Mortimer. My Rickey and Boo Boo….. Until I see you two again, I will count the days. Thanks you for all the love you always gave so willing, and all the kisses….

 

Love you, Boo Boo,
Mortimer-Boo
