Hey my beautiful girl. I am sorry I have not written so religiously on your web page as I did with Chyanne after you passed away. It just has been sooo hard to visit your page without falling apart. Even now I sit here with tears falling down, unable to see what I am typing. I know you know I love you dearly. Each time a sheltie that looks like you comes in through the doors at work, it just breaks my heart but also brings me joy cause all the memories of you come flooding to the surface. I just wanted to stop by and write my thoughts about you. I do dearly miss you. Daddy comes home to stay for a short time here in the next couple weeks and that is when he will feel the emptiness of you being gone. He was "the lucky one" in being gone when you passed away. But now he comes home to only your memory so maybe I am the lucky one after all. I was here still making memories with you before you left us. Daddy insisted that you sit beside his side of the bed though when you returned so there you sit. I don't have any toys though to sit with your tin. You no longer played with toys like Chy Chy was doing before she got sick and passed away. I did keep your collar and it is around your tin. I need to pick a really pretty picture to keep with it though. You were such a beautiful girl. Even with all the beautiful Shelties that come in the office, you were still the prettiest one I have ever seen. I saw one that almost looked exactly like you ... same short fur with the same colors except your white "bib" was alot larger than his. He was even the same size (weight and height!) as you. It was pretty sad for mommy. She had to look twice. It was like seeing a ghost! Speaking of ghosts, I think you come visit us through your brother and sisters. Maggie was never afraid of lightening and thunder like you were but since your passing, she has developed a fright of them. And Skylar is a constant barker when she plays like you used to do (except you considered your barking to be actually playing!! LOL). I see alot of your attributes in your brothers and sisters.

Mommy just wanted to let you know that you aren't forgotten, it is just hard to look at your page still without my heart totally breaking. I love you Reba. You were my first furbaby as daddy's forever girl. So you meant alot to the both of us. We wanted you so badly, we went and got you the very day after we got married cause we couldn't wait! We are looking forward to seeing you just as much at the bridge when mommy and daddy's time comes.

Big hugs to my girl and lots of kisses!

Mom
