IT WILL BE SIX MONTHS ON 24TH NOVEMBER AND 12 MONTHS ON THE 10TH DECEMBER SINCE I LOST MY TWO BELOVED GERBILS LILY AND ROSE.
WHEN THOSE TWO LITTLE CREATURES CAME INTO MY LIFE ON THAT SUMMER DAY IN JUNE 2001, I REALLY KNEW THE MEANING OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, THEY DEPENDED ON ME FOR EVERYTHING AND IN RETURN I GOT LOVE AND AFFECTION, THEY WERE MY LIFE AND MY LITTLE GIRLS.
SO WHEN IN WINTER OF 2003 I HAD TO MAKE THE DECISION TO HAVE MY BELOVED LILY PUT TO SLEEP IT WAS THE HARDEST THING I EVER HAD TO DO, BUT ROSE MADE IT EASIER TO COPE WITH THE LOSS OF LILY AS I STILL HAD HER, SO WHEN SHE DIED IN MAY 2004 I WAS SO UPSET AND MISSED THEM BOTH SO MUCH(I STILL DO).
IN AUGUST THIS YEAR I STARTED LOOKING FOR SOME MORE GERBILS AS I COULDN’T BARE TO HAVE AN EMPTY CAGE WITH NO LITTLE ANIMALS IN IT.
I FOUND SOME AND NOW THREE MORE LITTLE GIRLS HAVE COME INTO MY LIFE, HONEY, HAZEL AND COCOA, A MUM AND HER TWO FOSTER DAUGHTERS, HAZEL IS GREY THE SAME AS ROSE AND I SEE ALOT OF ROSE IN HAZEL, IT IS ALMOST AS THOUGH SHE HAS BEEN REINCARNATED, MAYBE SHE HAS.
ANYWAY I HAVE RE-FOUND THE MEANING OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE AND ALTHOUGH I MISS LILY AND ROSE THESE THREE LITTLE ANIMALS HAVE MADE IT EASIER AND I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.
AND AS THE TITLE OF MY STORY SAYS I HAVE MOVED ON, I KNOW LILY AND ROSE ARE LOOKING DOWN ON ME AND I THINK THEY WOULD APPROVE.
