Those were very beautiful words that you wrote Julie Anne and Jenna would be proud of her Mum. It will be so hard to come home now she isn't there to greet you - the sanctuary of your home suddenly feels strange and unwelcoming. So hard to sit on the sofa now without a head in your lap...to stroke whilst having far off daydreams and never realising how one day you would give a kingdom for one more snuggle of that little face. To eat a meal and not have to automatically save those two little portions at the end The grief you feel now is the one true proof of how much you loved and cared about your angel and one day the rain will stop and the sun will shine again full of beautiful memories each time you think of her. 14 years is a brilliant age and to be so cherished during her life - Jenna was one lucky girl. You did her the best service anyone could do and she went to the bridge knowing her Mum loved her very much.

I pay $30 every 6 weeks for my Lab X Goldie - he is longer haired like a Goldie and for the $30 he gets the hydrobath, blowdry, nails clipped and really nice smelly cologne stuff In the warmer months I do him myself but in Winter I like to get him dried off properly. My little Cavalier goes in the laundry tub..no worries!!

Very very touching - we lost our 12 year old to cancer in March but even before knowing she was sick we knew to value our time together as she was getting up there - reading your beautiful words brought it all back. It is a special gift to be able to write like that Hedds.
