Taylor was a full blooded chocolate lab. She was a very beautiful dog. My husband Brad got her when he was 15 years old. He taught her all kinds of tricks. She could sit, lay down, shake, fetch, release, stay and several other tricks. When my husband and I got together Taylor was 6 years old. I have two sons by a previous marriage, Zack was 6 and Tyler was 2 when Brad and I got together so they grew up with Taylor. Taylor would play soccer with the boys, play fetch, and chase. The boys loved her so much!!! The past few months Taylors health had been getting bad she had gotten arthritis in her hips, having a hard time hearing and was going blind. It was so sad to see her like this. This past week she went down hill fast she quit eating and drinking. All she would do was lie around and do nothing. We had decided to have her put to sleep we hated to see her suffer like she was but when we came home from work on Thursday, March 11, 2010 she had passed away. We were devastated...we expected it to happen but it was still so hard. She was a part of our family who we deeply loved so much. We will miss our Taylor so much!!! Rest in peace Taylor girl!!!xxxxx

Christmas Poem
◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒
It's Christmas time, the gifts are wrapped,
And piled beneath the tree,
Yet every year there's an absence,
That is only felt by me.
◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒
I prepare the table for the feast
And bow my head in prayer,
I try best to hide my grief,
For the child that is not there.
◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒
We raise our glasses for a toast,
To family and to friends,
But all that I am wishing for,
Is to hold you once again.
◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒
So amidst the Christmas joy,
Is an emptiness I bear,
An ever present heartache
For the child that is not there
◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒
And when I see children laugh
With that twinkle in their eyes,
I cannot help but wonder
If you think of me sometimes
◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒◒►◒
And when the day comes to an end,
No grief can quite compare,
To another Christmas yearning
For the child that is not there
Missing you always
Letter to Santa - by Claire Marritt
Dear Father Christmas
I write to you today
This is my Christmas wish for you
From very far away
I hope I don’t confuse you
As I’m not asking for clothes or toys
And I know you’re very busy
Reading letters from girls and boys
My request is oh-so simple
And elves cannot fulfil this quest
All I ask for is a visit to my family
To put their minds at rest
Just to sit inside your sleigh
So my wings don’t start to tire
A lift to my families home
Is all that I require
So while they are sleeping
My Angel kiss I’d like to leave
So they can dream happy memories
On this years Christmas Eve
I await your reply Dear Santa
I know your sleigh comes this high
For I listen for your jingles
In the magical starlit sky
Coryright of Claire Marritt

It's Christmas and I'll miss you
You'll never know how much
The greatest thing I could get
Would be just to feel your touch.
☆..★..☆..★..☆..★..☆..★..☆
I know you're safe in God's arms
And you're as happy as can be
And I know that I'm being selfish
To want you here with me.
☆..★..☆..★..☆..★..☆..★..☆
Have a lovely Christmas
I'll get by, you'll see
Just Promise me on Christmas day
That you will think of me

All my love always xx mommy and daddy

SOLACE
(Written by Lisa Carmel Singer)
From the Silence of your pain, I heard my name
and on the wings of light I have come
to see the sadness in your eyes
that cry without tears. Can you see me, I am here.
I will always be near you,
to calm your shattered heart
and to make you smile at the memories.
Do you feel me, perhaps a soft brush of fur.
You ache to believe it's real
but you are afraid to hope
you brush away a strand of hair.
But it was I, whispering
I am only here for a moment.
The silver thread gently quivers
I will leave behind my love in a dream
When you awaken and without really knowing why
Your heart will know at last
That it is all right for now
to say goodbye.
MERRY CHRISTMAS

☆ At Christmas Time ☆
Remember they are still with us,
We see their faces every day,
When we raise our Christmas glasses,
They are not too far away.
Though they're not here in body,
Their spirit is still here,
And as long as we remember this,
They always will be near.

Easter Means Eternal Life
A perfect God demands a perfect justice;
He cannot let us get away with sin.
We used God’s gift of our free will to trespass,
So heaven’s gates were closed; we couldn’t get in.
Our sin required our blood, a sacrifice,
To atone for all the wrongs that we had done.
"But I love them!" cried our Father, filled with sorrow;
"I’ll send my only Son to be the one."
Good Friday marks the slaying of our Jesus,
The unblemished lamb, the perfect sacrifice.
He took our guilt and blame upon Himself,
So we could be with Him in paradise.
On Easter morning, he came back from death;
He vanished from the tomb, the empty grave.
His resurrection means eternal life
For us, the ones he came to earth to save.
This summarizes all the Easter story
And because of it, we’ll be with Him in glory.
By Joanna Fuchs
Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.

Beyond the Rainbow
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.
(Written by CG - 1995)
