It would have been a perfect day for a walk around the neighborhood with one child riding her bike, the other child in the jogging stroller and a dog on a leash walking next to me.
Today, I'm finding I'm missing my dog, Zoey. I really feel her presence today. As I walked down the stairs today, I thought for sure I was going to see her laying on the floor of the study with her tail wagging and waiting for me to greet her with a pet and a hug! She wasn't physically there and I was so very disappointed. There have been some odd noises that have made me look up expecting her to be right there today. She's in my thoughts a lot today and I have to admit my eyes are tearing up a bit as I type this. I actually walked over and grabbed an old toy hoping I could get a scent from it earlier today. I think she's visiting me today because its been weeks since I've had this undying need to see her. I think of her often, but today she's deeply rooted in my sub-conscience. I opened the freezer door expecting to hear her paws and see her as she turned the corner towards the refrigerator. I dropped a grape on the kitchen floor and scrambled so fast to pick it up thinking I had to scoop it up before she was able to eat one, since grapes are bad for dogs.
Its just so weird to be thinking of her so much today - I hope she's in heaven thinking about me and that's why she's been deeply rooted in my thoughts today.

| This was Zoey on Christmas Day with her new blanket. She was very ill - with ulcerated intestine from pain meds. |
 |
| Never thought that we'd have to say goodbye to her at such a young age. She would have turned 6 years old 3 days after she gained her dog-angel wings. |
Zoey girl, I miss you so much today!
Love Mom!
