” Midget “” Gidget” by BerNadett Leal / Your mommy BerNadett

This tribute in in memory of my little “Midget” Gidget, the last of my babies. Gidget has now joined her brothers Booboo, Smoki, and her sister Yogi. I rescued Gidget 8 years ago from an abused home she was living at. I don’t really know how old my baby girl was; but I just say 8 because that is how many years I had her. Gidget was a Cairn Terrier who sure did alot of barking. She may have not been a big dog, but she sure was a good watchdog. She always let me know when someone unwelcomed was around. She always let me know when the mail man was here.

I sure do miss this beautiful dog. Whoever said that silence is golden sure lied. I didn’t know how much I missed my baby until the silence of her not being here hit me. I cry everyday for my baby girl. It hurts so much. Her and Booboo died 7 months apart. What is even sadder is that they both died during my vacations. I thank my Lord Jesus that she didn’t suffer. Gidget had been having seizures for about 2 months prior to her death. But I believe in my heart ever since Booboo died, she got lonely. She seemed to have lost all her spunk when he died.

On my baby’s last day on earth, I was taking her to the hospital when she had a heart attack. So I am grateful to God she died in my arms. My little “Midget”, I will never forget those little cute button eyes or that wagging tail everytime there was food around. You lived to eat. That’s for sure. I love and miss you so much, the silence is hurting me so bad.

I still look for you in the kitchen when I’m cooking or unwrapping cheese. You were always behind me my baby girl. I kept your little yellow duck that you loved so much. I wish you were still here in the present. I know you live in my heart forever. Remember, what I told you, Booboo, Smoki, and Yogi. I will never get anymore dogs. No other dogs will ever take your places. Sleep in peace my sweet girl, and kiss my other babies for me. I also miss your wet kisses all over my face. I love you forever.

 

With all my love baby girl,
