I let you go the other day my child, I sent you to a new home with a new family that I had chosen very carefully for you; don’t think you had done anything wrong, you hadn’t. I loved you dearly and still do. The short time you spent with me you became a part of my heart and my home. I promised you that I would care for you as long as I was able to, sadly
that time was short lived.
I loved you so much that I knew the kindest thing I could do for you was to rehome you with a family who would love you as much as I did, and still do. You are still so young my baby and you will bond with
your new family very quickly.
You will go on holiday with them and for long walks, things I could not give you, the little girl Kathryn loved you instantly. Did you see the tears of happiness in her young eyes
as she held you close. I noticed.
Did you not hear her mum and dad asking could they pay me a bit at a time then take you when they had payed it all, as they could not really afford you, but wanted you so badly. Did you not hear me drop your price, and tell them they could take you the same day. Did you not see little Kathryn’s mum hug me and hear her say she would cry with happiness when she got home, that it was
like christmas day all over again.
I saw and heard all these things darling, the money didn’t matter to me. If I had offered you for free everyone would have wanted you, but your new family were prepared to struggle to get the money together for you, That’s how much they loved you, and that was how I knew they were the right people for you. So you go live your life sweetheart.
I’m sorry you won’t be living your life with me. You will forget me but I will never forget you. You will always have a place in my heart. The little bit that’s broken will always belong to you. Oh, I’m going to see you again in the spring time. Your new family are going
to bring you down to see me.
We have been talking on the phone. You won’t remember me, but I will remember you, So I guess it’s time to close the chapter in this part of our lives. We are both going different ways now. Lassie and Holly miss you but I miss you most of all. Parting with you was the hardest thing I could have done, but I did it because I love you.
Goodbye little Charlie.
I love you.
I will love you forever,
