I read the other stories and tributes here and everyone says that they still feel the pain after a year, two years.... My pain is only eight days old...
To my baby boy, Elias Joseph...this is Mama! I talk to you all day every day, but I thought if maybe I wrote some things down, I would feel better. I can't tell you how much me and Papa and Brother miss you. Sometimes Brother looks for you. All your blankies all still in place and he lays on them.
I've tried to be clever and think of a poem or some other memorial, but I can't come up with the words. They are stuck in my heart. The only comforts I feel is knowing that you are up there, able to run and jump and play again, as you haven't been able to do in so long. I know that you found the treat jar the first day, and my sweet, you should know that in Doggie Heaven, that jar is NEVER empty!
Just want to tell you how much I will always love you. My heart is broken, but you will always be Mama's baby boy.
