Arrival Story: We were in Kuwait and read an Ad in the newspaper about puppies needing home. We were then living with our relatives. We got Lassie home when she was 3 months old [Dec.7, 2004] with her sister Angel [for my brother in law] with whom we were staying then. They gave up Angel to a new family [ Dec.31, 2004] After the news that dogs are not allowed in the apartment. I missed Angel very much.
We moved to Bahrain [May 2006] and of course Lassie came along. Lassie is our child. Her unconditional love always brings joy in our hearts .she still thinks she is a little girl .She loves to sit on her dada's lap. Lassie is a great companion for me as I am a stay at home mom. We are truly blessed to have such a darling in our lives.

Birthdays are days meant for celebration and fun but my heart has been heavy throughout. Its Lassies 5th Birthday today and she isnt here to celebrate it.
It was 12 midnight and dada sang Happy Birthday I couldnt bring myself to do so. I know his heart was a lot heavy too. The night went by I was tossing and turning, the much needed sleep never came.
Dada as usual is the first to wake up. He tries to wake me up but realizes I am already awake.
I get out of bed and am relieved to see Leila and Ingmar. I am so glad they are around. I light a candle for Lassie and place it next to her baby picture. I try hard not to put a damper on things so I decide to make some frosty paws (pumpkin/yoghurt) and ( carrots, peanut butter/ yoghurt).I boiled some chicken and chicken livers for some extra treats for them .
I guess I will have to try real hard not to be melancholy. As usual, Ingy and Leila keep me very busy and the morning passes by very quickly. Come afternoon dada is home for lunch and leaves again quicker than usual saying he has lots to do today.
I go back to the computer and am at Lassies Page again. I had made it a couple of nights ago. It wasnt really easy. I continue to do basically nothing. Dada returns home and surprises us with a Huge Bone cake and an orchid flower. Its Lassies Birthday he says, we have to celebrate her time with us and not dwell on the fact that she is not with us anymore.
He heads back to work and I am there standing over this cake and the beautiful white orchid. I realize that the best way to remember Lassie today is to remember her and be Happy so I bring out the party hats & tiaras and celebrate with my two naughty fur kids Leila and Ingy.
I get out the frosty paws which are set by now and place them next to the cake. Of course they spare no time to dig in. I thank the Lord again that they are around. We have some fun together with the picture taking and then they lick the cake first Leila and then Ingy.
I had saved a mini yellow dog figurine made of sugar paste from Lassies Birthday cake from last year and had promised Lassie then that I would put it on her cake the next year.
I kept my promise I got the mini yellow dog figurine from the fridge and kept it alongside the cake and pictured Lassie licking it last year. I am sure she is watching over us from the Rainbow Bridge and of course licking her lips.
Happy Birthday my sweet Angel Lassie we miss you and you will always be in our hearts.
I want to thank all our friends old and new for all your best wishes for Lassie and remembering her on her Birthday. It really means a lot I am so glad that Lassie has such great friends. I am grateful for Leila and Ingy as without them every day would be such a challenge.
