2 years........

Happy 2nd Anniversary at the Bridge, Ollie!
Hope you threw a wonderful party for your friends there!
Please give Alyx some kisses for us too!

It's hard to believe that 2 years have passed since you last sat beside me with your head rested on my shoulder. I still miss that very much. I still think of you often and have special momentos of you always close to me. I smile when I sit at my desk and glance over at a picture of you and you are looking back at me and I know you are still watching over me. I remember all the wonderful times we had together and the grand adventures we shared. You have a very special place in my heart, my Ollie Hoppit.
Mommy still misses you dearly.........

Love,
Mommy and Kobi,
Tyler and Sis,
and the kitties

1 year gone already......

Ollie,

This past year has gone by so fast. It still seems like just yesterday that you were still here with me. And I still remember the day you left so well. It was one of the hardest days of my life, watching you go. I know that you are happy and healthy now, and that you still watch over me. You will always hold a very special place in my heart and I cherish all the memories of the years we spent together and the many adventures we had. I will never forget you, and you will always be my one and only Hoppit Dog. I love you and miss you Hoppy.........

Kisses and Hugs,
Mommy

Ollie's Song and 6 months gone

This is a little song I always sang to Ollie. It was his song. And it went something like this:

Oh my Ollie
Oh my Ollie
Oh my Ollie Hoppit Dog
He's my Best Friend
He's my Buddy
He's my Ollie Hoppit Dog

I made up this song for Ollie when he was just a pup and I sang it to him at least once a day (usually several times a day), every day of his life.

When I would sing this to him, he would come over and sit down beside me, lean into me, resting his head up under my chin, as I slid my arm around him. It was always a very special moment for us.

I sang this song to him many times the day he died as I layed on the floor with him to try to comfort him. And I still catch myself singing this song, every now and then (still almost every day), even though he's been gone 6 months today. I guess it's just my way of letting him know that I still think about him all the time and that I miss our special moments together........and I still miss my boy terribly.

It still seems like just yesterday that he left me, but it seems like forever since the last time I hugged him. I still feel him with me, almost constantly now. I know that his spirit stays near me, still guarding and protecting his Mama.

Ollie is truly my guardian angel now and he'll always be the love of my life.

Kisses and Hugs,
Mommy loves you Hoppy...........
