Maggie's Musings

Dear Mom

Dear Mom,

As I watch you from under the lush shade tree up here at The Bridge, I wanted to reach out to you so many times since Tuesday but I knew you weren't ready. I know that you and dad and Dolly are sad, but please try to remember that, while I miss you all terribly, I am free now. My gray is gone, my body doesn't ache, and I can chase the bunnies and squirrels again! The weather up here is eternally beautiful and I lay in the sun for a bit every morning and take a long walk every night. I sleep like a baby. (Although that may be from not having to hear Dolly snore!)

I just want you to know that I love you and am watching over you. Please don't miss me because I am still there with you all in your hearts. Oh and P.S. .... at The Bridge you do NOT get in trouble for licking the dirty silverware in the dishwashers!

I love you,

your Maggie Mae

Prayers Needed

Pups,

We just found out that the mom of one of our dear pup pals is ill and in need of our prayers. In the interest of her privacy, we will not mention names or the illness, but she could really use all of our prayers right now. Her prognosis is good and we are confident that she will make it through this with flying colors (even if the colors are a little muted sometimes), but there is nothing like the power of prayer, love, and doggy paws on your side. So please ... when you curl up with your pawrents tonight, could you just send one up for her? I'm sure the man upstairs will make sure it gets to the right place.

Guess what?

I have a boyfriend! His name is Spuds and he is soooo adorable! He's black and white just like me, but he's a Border Collie.

I'm pretty new to this whole dating thing ... I didn't know dogs could date, but I guess they can. I mean people date long distance on the internet, so why not dogs? BOL. Besides, who could resist his adorable face???

Anyway, I just had to gush. :-)
