Dear Harvey,
I realize this is not a story, per se, but I wanted to write you a letter to tell you how I felt about you, precious doggie boy. I hope you are in heaven and can understand my heart. I love you baby boy. I was the only one who understood your naughty ways. I was your mommy and I loved you with my entire heart and soul. When I saw you in your cage at the shelter, I just had to bring you to live with us. I am going to miss holding you like a baby. I am going to miss our walks together. I am going to miss your gentle spirit and your beautiful brown eyes. I am going to miss the way you burrowed your little snout in my hair and sighed like you had no care in the world. I’m going to miss your warm little body cuddled up next to me as I sleep. I am going to miss giving you cheese.
I am even going to miss finding your little destructive messes around the house. It’s too quiet at home without you here. You did not deserve to die so young. I hope I can forgive the person who took you from me so suddenly, too soon. I did not have enough time with you, my precious baby, and I am never going to be the same now that you are gone. You were my pet soul mate, if there is such a thing.
I really look forward to your kisses when I see you in heaven someday. Go ahead baby, chew up whatever you want up there, eat all the cheese your tummy can hold, and play with Jesus. Keep Buster and Otis and Cody company. I’ll be seeing you and I’ll be missing you terribly the rest of my life.
I love you doggie doo,
| Harvey |
