Dog
KELSEY CAME INTO MY LIFE AS A SIX WEEK OLD PUPPY.
SHE HAD BEEN PUT IN THE SHELTER AND THE NEXT DAY
I ADOPTED HER. SHE WAS A BRIGHT NEW ADDITION TO THE HOME
MY DAUGHTER AND I SHARED. AND WE LOVED HER.
SHE WAS ALWAYS MY CONSTANT COMPANION.
WE TOOK WALKS WE WENT TO THE BEACH WHICH SHE LOVED.
SHE WOULD ROMP THROUGH THE WAVES AND SHE LIKED TO
STICK HER NOSE RIGHT DOWN IN THE WATER.
SHE EVEN WENT TO A HORSE FARM WITH ME AND FOLLOWED
ME AS I RODE HORSEBACK.
MY NEW HORSE MUD BUG DID NOT MIND KELSEY BEING IN HIS
STALL WITH HIM SHE WOULD GO IN TO GREET HIM AND LICK HIM
RIGHT ON HIS NOSE. SHE LOVED TO PLAY WITH HER TOYS RIGHT
AFTER DINNER THAT WAS HER ROUTINE.
RUN AND JUMP AFTER HER STUFFED BABIES.
AND PLAY TUG OF WAR. SHE WAS SO STRONG SOMETIMES I WOULD
LET HER PULL ME RIGHT OFF THE SOFA.
THEN KELSEY GOT SICK WITH CANCER AS WE FOUND OUT AND
THE FIGHTER THAT SHE WAS SHE HUNG IN THERE AS LONG AS SHE
COULD AND THEN SHE JUST QUIT EATING AND DRINKING WATER.
SHE DECIDED IT WAS HER TIME.
WE ALL WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU KELSEY,
NEVER FORGET US.
LOVE,
MOMMY DADDY AND GABRIELLE
