I lost a piece of my heart today.
Reeves had been declining at a faster rate lately it seemed. This weekend I knew it was his time and my little sweet pea fell asleep for the last time in his little bed just after midnight. Before I went to sleep at 12:30am I held him close, hugged and kissed him one last time and told him I would miss him forever and that it was okay to run to the bridge. When the radio went off this morning the song playing was "Stairway To Heaven." I knew before I even checked, at that moment, my little boy Reeves was gone. And he had moved on ahead.
Another breeder once said - No matter how long, it's never long enough. No truer words were ever spoken.
I will miss you Reeves. I will always love you with all my heart. But I know now that you dance at the bridge with your best friends Gizmo and Crystal. Please be there waiting for me when my time comes.
My little sweet pea - rest in peace.
