Hey Timber, it's me. How are you doing? I hope you are doing well with pa and Jameson and not bossing them around. Anyway it's been four years since you left us and I can't help, but imagine what you would've looked liked. But I guess I'll never know the answer to that. You were a beautiful dog and not much would've changed about you when you got older. Everyone wishes you were still around and we all miss you very much. I hope one day all of us, will be reunited with you, pa and Jameson forever! I miss you boy and I'll see you soon!

5/2/2024 4:40 am. Good morning big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! I haven't written to you this early in the morning in a long time. I haven't been sleeping well and when I woke up this morning I couldn't help but think that we would be out walking already. We usually left the house around 4:30, sometimes earlier. You definitely would have enjoyed this walks because it is nice and cool out but it is going to get really warm later on. I was just telling daddy that I probably would have put the air on for you because I always wanted you to be comfortable. As a matter of fact, the earliest we ever put the air on was in April, just for you! I miss you so much Timber! I wish you would send me a sign that you are still around me! I would really love for you to visit me in my dreams! I would love to see your beautiful face again! Are you going on walks with Jameson and pa? I hope the three of you are hanging out each day! One day mommy will be with you again! Mommy loves you always!

4/27/2024 2:41 pm. Hello my beautiful big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! Well today is your fourth anniversary at Rainbow Bridge! I can't believe that I haven't seen your handsome face or hugged and kissed you in four years! Time is passing by, yet, it is moving too slowly! I miss you every minute of every day! I kind of want time to pass by faster so that I can be back with you sooner! I can't help but wonder what you would look like now. I don't think you would look older because you had gray in your coat, at least a little bit. I bet you would just look a little more distinguished! Having you been walking and playing each day? I hope so! I also hope that you have plenty of yummies because you deserve them! How about squeaky toys? You know they have to squeak or make some kind of noise, otherwise you can't be bothered by them. Oh Timber I hope you are watching over us! Always remember that mommy loves you forever and always to the moon and back! Only love Timber, only love!

Hey, Timber how are you doing? I hope you're doing well and having fun with Jameson and pa. But I can't get over the fact that you left us for four years almost. I can't believe that it's been that long already yet it feels like it was yesterday. I still think about that day when we had to put you down and it still haunts all of us knowing that we had to put you down at such a young age. But I know that we'll be reunited soon and we'll be able to see each other again for eternity. I hope you are nice to Jameson and get along with each other. Anyway we all love you boy and everyday that passes by brings me closer to you. Rest well Timber and I'll see you soon!

4/25/2024 6:07 am. Good morning big boy! I miss and love you so much! It is a cool morning out especially for late April. We would be back from our first walk of the day. This is the type of day that you would have laid outside the whole day. In a couple of days you will be gone four years. I can't believe it! You would be older now and I wonder how much calmer you would have become in your older years. I think Matthew would have been able to walk you himself now. He is really strong! I miss you so much Timber! Why your time with us had to be so short is a question that I will never be able to answer! All I know is that life isn't fair. Are you running and playing at Rainbow Bridge? I hope you are playing with Jameson and that the two of you are hanging out with pa! You all need to go on long walks together, okay! One day big boy I will be with you forever! I long for the day that I see your beautiful face and can kiss and hug you once again! Mommy loves you forever and always!! xoxoxo

Hey Timber, how's everything going for you? I hope everything is going great for you, pa and Jameson! But speaking of Jameson, have you met him yet? I hope so because it would break my heart if you two were wandering alone. Anyway even it'll be four years since you left us, it feels like yesterday when we had to put you down and the pain is still there. I still think about the day and it still haunts me knowing that you were taken from us at such a young age. I wish you were still here, heck everyone wishes you were still here. You were such a beautiful dog that got taken away so soon from us. Your mother, well our mother really misses you the most. She was your favorite person and you two were inseparable from each other. But even though you may be gone, one day we'll all be able to see you again and never leave your side again. Take care Timber, and see you soon!

4/18/2024 5:52 am. Good morning big boy! I miss and love you so much! You are always on my mind and forever in my heart! Well it is very chilly and rainy out this morning. You would have loved it. Just the beginning of the week we had 82 degrees which you would have hated. I would have been nervous that it was too hot for you but thankfully it didn't last long! I miss you so much big boy! I don't walk anymore, at least no where as much as I did when you were here with us. I miss those early morning walks the most! Just you and mommy, right! One day Timber we will take those long walks together again! Have you met up with Jameson? I hope so! I worry about him. He is so quiet and shy and I need you to show him the ropes. Take him for walks with pa and how him around! I miss both of you so much! Hopefully the two of you will send me signs once in a while. I would really like that! Always know that mommy loves you to the moon and back! You are forever in my heart. I love you big boy!! xoxo

Hey Timber, it's me your brother Matthew. It's been a while hasn't it? I know I should've been writing to you since your passing, but I didn't have the courage to do it because the pain just unbearable to handle. But here I am writing to you for the very first time. So how is everything going for you and pa? I hope it's great because a new member will be joining your group. You're brother Jameson will be joining you and pa on your walks. We had to put him to sleep yesterday and I hope that you two will get along with each other. But now that he's gone I guess that gave me the courage to speak to you. I'm in my senior year of high school and about to graduate in two months. I'm growing up and becoming an adult. But all of our hearts feel empty without you here and we all miss a lot boy. But I have to say goodbye for now since I have to wake up for school tomorrow and your mother wouldn't be happy if I wake up late. So have a good night boy and hopefully we'll see you soon!

4/11/2024 5:11 pm. Hello my beautiful Timber! I miss and love you so much! I know I just wrote to you yesterday about Jameson, but have the two of you already met up? Are you both sending me messages that you are alright? I'm just asking because before 2 mourning doves showed up under our deck. The kids and I all saw it and I even took pictures. I truly hope that they are a sign from you and Jameson, telling me that you are together, that you are both fine and that you will always be with us! I miss you more and more as each day passes and I cannot wait to be with you again! Stay close to Jameson and know that I love you both beyond words! Are you hanging with pa? I hope so! All three of you need to take long walks together! Then you can take a rest in the shade of a big tree! One day we will all be together again, and like I always say, I hope that day comes sooner rather than later! I love you to the moon and back forever and always big boy! Only love Timber, only love! Alwasys!!xoxo

4/11/2024 12:02 am. Good morning big boy! I know it is very early! I miss and love you so much Timber! You are always in my heart and on my mind! Well I have something to tell you. After we had to say goodbye to you we got another dog. We named him Jameson. He was a rescue. He was a Great Pyrenees and he was white with spots around his eyes and across his body. Well we had to say goodbye to him last night. He got really sick and he could barely walk. He wasn't eating and all he wanted was water to drink. I need you to go find him. I need to know that the two of you are together and taking care of each other! Hopefully pa met him at rainbow bridge and the three of you will keep each other company! My heart is broken all over again. Jameson came into our life to help us heal from losing you and he did do that to some extent! We still miss you terribly and are still heartbroken but he helped ease it somewhat! Please, just find him and take care of him for me! I love you both forever!!xoxo

4/4/2024 8:21 pm. Hello my beautiful big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! Well you would be curled up for the night by now. It is raining out again which means your last walk would have been in the rain. Do you remember the time that daddy and I were walking you and it started pouring? We had an umbrella but the rain was just too much! We started running home and along the way daddy lost his sunglasses. It was so funny and you loved it! You loved to run and loved the rain as well! Well we had so much rain all day yesterday. It was windy too which made it seem like the rain was coming down harder than it actually was. You would have probably wanted to lay on the deck in the torrential rain! We lost power this morning for about an hour so that wasn't too bad! Oh Timber, I miss you so much! It is quickly coming up on the 4 year anniversary of having to say goodbye. I can't believe it! I wish everyday that you were still here with me! I will love you forever and always big boy!! xo

3/31/2024 10:51 pm. Hello my beautiful big boy! Happy Easter Timber! I miss and love you so much! This was the last holiday we spent with you four years ago. I can't believe that four years has passed. It feels like yesterday that you were here with us! I wish you were still here with us! I wonder what toys you would have gotten from the easter bunny this year. I don't even look at the toy section in Target any more because it reminds me of you. It is too painful to see all the toys that you would have loved to have had. I just miss you so much! Did you spend the day with pa? I hope you had a nice day together and went for a really nice long walk! I hope you also got to spend sometime just sitting and relaxing, maybe under a nice tree. That is how I like to picture the both of you! Well the weather was nice today but the rest of the week looks like rain. I hope this isn't the weather for all of spring! Always remember that mommy loves you forever and always to the moon and back! xoxoxo

3/29/2024 6:53 am. Good morning big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! You are thought of everyday and spoken of everyday as well! We all miss you so much and wish you were still here with us! Well, Easter is in two days and I can't help but be reminded that that was the last holiday you had with us. I can still see you holding your toy basket in your mouth which you had just gotten as an Easter present. We have that picture hanging up. I miss you so much Timber! My heart has yet to heal from losing you and I'm pretty sure it will never heal! We would have had our first walk of the day already and you would be laying on the floor or on the couch right now. The kids are off from school today and Monday so you would have enjoyed having them around. Time is passing so fast yet not fast enough. It is almost four years since we had to say goodbye to you, yet it feels like yesterday. I just miss you more and more as each day passes! I love you forever and always to the moon and back!xo

3/21/2024 9:41 pm. Hello my big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! Well it's bedtime. You would be all settled down for the night at this point. You definitely would have gone on a long walk for your last walk of the night today. It is so cold out it feels like winter is just starting. It does not feel like spring at all. That has been true of our weather the last couple of days. It has been pretty cold out and you would have loved it. It has also been pretty windy out which you enjoyed as well! I wish you were here to experience this weather with us. Daddy and I were just talking about you earlier. We were saying how you would have walked forever in this type of weather! Are you walking with pa every day? I hope so! You need to make sure that you both get your exercise in! Well the school year is coming to a close. It went by so fast. Matthew is graduating high school and Julie's turning 16! I can't believe it! Your kids are all grown up! They miss you too! I love you always! xo

3/14/2024 8:10 pm. Hello my beautiful big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! You are on my mind every single day and forever in my heart! I was just looking at photos of you yesterday. You were the cutest puppy ever and the most beautiful big boy! Looking at the photos it is amazing to see just how fast you grew! I miss you every single day! Well we have had really nice weather the last couple of days. Today reached 71 degrees. It was really sunny and it felt pretty warm out. You would have laid on the deck all day and soaked up the sun! I wish you were still here to do that! Tomorrow is going to be a little cooler but cloudy and then changes. Next week we are back in the 40's. I don't know the weather has been crazy lately. Are you spending time with pa? Are you going on long walks together? I hope so! I like to think of the two of you walking around and then sitting on a bench in the shade together! I miss you so much Timber and I love you to the moon and back forever and ever!

3/7/2024 8:17 pm. Hello my beautiful big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! You are always on my mind and forever in my heart! I think of you everyday and talk to you everyday also! I hope you hear me! Well we have had a lot of rain recently. It had been mild but rainy which makes it humid out. The house is so warm I haven't had to put the heat on. But it is warm at night, even with the ceiling fans on that I sweat through my shirt. We are getting more rain this weekend and then it is supposed to get nice. We'll see. I know you preferred the cold but I can still see you laying on the deck in the sunshine! You always looked so content! I truly miss seeing you out in the backyard! That was your domain! I wish you were still here to enjoy the new grass we put out in the back and the new deck! You couldn't chew this new one like you did the old one. What I would give to have you back Timber! One day big boy we will be together again! Hopefully sooner rather then later! I love you!!xo

3/1/2024 6:48 pm. Hello my big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! Not a day goes by that I don't think of you! You are always on my mind, every single day! Well it looks like the weather is going to start to warm up. We had a nice few days in the 60's. But now it looks like we are going to get some rain. You wouldn't have cared. You would lay out in the rain all day, it didn't bother you. I remember taking you for walks in the rain and you would go through all of the puddles while I tried to avoid them. I miss walking you Timber! I miss watching you smell everything and I miss watching you put your nose up in the air to catch a new smell! I just miss everything you used to do and I miss everything about you! We would probably be on our last walk right now! It's cool out but comfortable. We would have had a nice walk! Are you walking with pa? I hope so! The exercise is good for both of you! Say hi to him for me! Always remember that mommy loves you to the moon and back Timber!xoxo

2/22/2024 8:41 pm. Hello big boy! I miss and love you so much! You are always on my mind and forever in my heart! I miss you so much Timber! I talk to you everyday! Do you hear me? I hope so! I made hamburgers tonight for dinner, well they are called sliders because they are so small. I know you would have been right by my side in the kitchen once I took them out of the oven. You would have been expecting to get the first one, and you would have too!! I miss having my shadow around!! It was always you and mommy, right big boy! Well we had a snowstorm last Saturday. We were supposed to get 3-4 inches but we ended up getting about 10 inches. Thankfully daddy was home and we shoveled together! We also had to shovel your buddy's house because he can't do it anymore. He isn't walking well these days and shoveling would be way too much for him! I hope you have snow to play in because I know you would have been outside all day in those 10 inches! Mommy loves you forever and always Timber!xoxo

2/15/2024 10:02 am. Hello my big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! I think of you everyday and can't wait until we are together again! Well it snowed this past Tuesday. The kids had off from school because of it. We didn't even get that much. I think we got 3 inches. But it came down during the morning so the commute to school would have been a mess. It wasn't even the nice fluffy snow. It was wet and heavy. You wouldn't have cared. I know you still would have rolled around in it and would have had a grand old time! I hope you have snow to play in! I remember after you had your hip surgery you could barely walk. Then you had healed pretty well when we had a snowstorm. It was the same wet and heavy snow we just got. It was really late at night, I think around midnight and daddy and I let you out in the back. We threw your tennis ball to you and you had so much fun looking for it in the snow! We were out there a while and you had the best time! I miss you Timber and I love you! xo

2/8/2024 8:23 pm. Hello my big boy! I miss and love you so much Timber! I think about you all of the time and talk to you every single day! I was just looking at pictures of you when you were a puppy. I was also watching the video I have of you when you were learning to go down the stairs. I was so nervous! I was worried you were going to tumble down but you didn't! You mastered the stairs so quickly I was amazed! I miss all of the wonderful things you used to do! I miss seeing you curled up on the living room couch and I especially miss watching you jump on the couch in the basement, in your spot, and taking up the whole part of the sectional! You completely took that spot over! I also miss watching you slide down to lay on the floor! You were such a cool cat with your moves! I just miss you so much big boy! My heart is forever broken without you here! One day, hopefully soon I will be with you again! I love you to the moon and back forever and always! Say hi to pa! I love you Timber!
