Baby came into my life almost 8 years ago
and since the day I saw her I fell in love.
She was so beautiful and so bright. When her Paw Paw saw
her he called her his Baby Girl and said “She’s Beautiful”
and she was beautiful inside and outside.
She was funny and dignified an angel sent to us to love
and love her we did. She returned to us all that we could wish
for in a loved pet she was our Baby Girl and we never thought
we would loose her.
She loved her house and she loved to watch the birds for
hours and she loved living her life.
At night she would cuddle between Paw Paw and me
and you could hear her purrs all through the night.
Sometimes when we would fuss she would come between us
and we would touch and we would smile.
Our safety net form a week of work no matter how hard or
what happened we thought about her all the way to the house each day.
To be greeted my Baby made us smile and she always met us
and she was our safety net in a world in a hurry.
One day she didn’t meet me and I hurried through the house
to find her. Under a bed burning with fever she started a long
difficult series of treatments that would end in sorrow.
Finally she was diagnoses with cancer and our world fell apart.
I watch as she suffered the daily trips to the vets twice a day
to dehydrate her and give her medication to keep her alive
just another day please God just another day.
Finally your Mommy could not stand to see the pain anymore.
The funny beautiful little girl that loved life so much was
hiding in the closet unable to eat an effort to walk.
I could not take anymore Baby I was dying inside watching
the needles and tubes and the light was gone from your eyes.
Please forgive me Honey I love you and I miss you and
I was there to hold you while I let you slip away.
I pray I did the right thing I cry so hard that I shake and I want
you to come back to me just one more time just a few minutes
to love me and let me explain.
Did I give up to easily? Should I have done more?
I was tired Baby I was so tired and now I am so sad inside
all the time I think about you and pray that you forgive me
for letting you go. I am so sorry Honey.
Joey is here and he looks for you all the time he sits on
your grave and the grief is breaking my heart.
He does not understand I let him see you after you were gone
and I talked to him he did not understand Baby he was scared
and so was I and your Paw Paw.
Good night dear Angel Baby we love you so much and to hold
you once again would help the pain sometimes.
But the pain of watching you was more then I could bare anymore
no more pain no more.
Sleep sweet angel and wait for me I will be
with you again Mommy promises you promises you.
Love
Mommy Paw Paw and your
best friend Joey Boy
