Our beloved ‘Keiser’ came to us when he was just a baby. At 6 months old, my husband went away to serve our country. ‘Keiser’ had become my backbone at this time. He was everything to me. He would always find a way to give me comfort in all the difficult times I was going through. From sleeping by my side every single night, to being his silly self during the day to let me know he cared and make sure I had a smile.
It was the most horrific day when he had to go. He came and pawed at me as if he was saying “Mommy, I have to go”. I just couldn’t let him go, I wanted him to stay, I needed him so much with me. The vet tried everything to keep him here, but God was calling and he had to go. I know God needed him, but he was just so young. He was my baby, he meant the world to me. It hurts so bad every day still. I believe God does do things for reasons, and some day I will know. My husband is still in Iraq and was not able to tell our little child goodbye.
I longed for the day of him comming home and seeing ‘Keiser’s expression on his face and how over whelmed with joy he was going to be. I know that his daddy misses him so, just as much as I do.
He also had 3 other best friends that he had to leave behind. His loving ‘Miss Miya’, little ‘Mr. Precious’ and the wild ‘Miss Boots’. Him and Miya would run and play together every single day. The funnest thing was running through the pond and the mud puddles. They would just over whelm you with who got the most loves and hugs. She is hurting now to, but together we are trying to get through. She understands and is being here for me now, she stays by my side just like you did before. Keiser would always lay in the floor in the living room right beside my cat ‘Precious’. It was so weird with him being so big and the cat so small. But they would just snuggle up together, they loved each other so much. He was the only dog that ‘Miss Boots’ was never afraid of. She would run right up to him and meow and play. It was the cutest thing, like they would just be talking back and forth.
I will try to not cry so much as I do, I have to stay srong for these other babies here. They all miss you so much Keiser as well as daddy and me. I know that we will be with him one day again. We will never replace you ‘Keiser’ you were everything to us.
We know that you are having alot of fun right now in Heaven, and baby we will see you again.
We love you always and forever
