The thought that breaks me down

Quite a number of my friends have recently lost their dogs. Not like they ran away, but their dogs passed away.  Obviously, each incident saddens me like the dickens!  But it also scares me that all of their deaths are occurring all around the same time.  Sometimes I fear it’s a sign that I’ll have to say goodbye to my doggie really soon.  This is the toughest thought to deal with!

Imagine losing your child. No parent should ever have to face such a tragedy! That’s how I would feel if I ever lost my Kila. She really is my baby and I am so blessed to have her. She completes our family and brings us such joy. The thought—the mear THOUGHT—always brings me to tears. My prayer is that I will never have to say goodbye to her ever (and I know that can sound selfish), but if I ever have to, then I pray God prepares my heart for it. I pray He prepares our whole family’s hearts for it.
