Can you believe it's been a year already? AND the anniversary of saying goodbye to my boy is on a Tuesday, no less? I'd planned to pull all manner of photos of him to share today, but truthfully, it's too hard to look at them through the tears that still fall so readily. In my heart, it still feels like yesterday.
I miss his antics (good and bad) every day. I miss that he always found a way to make us laugh. I miss white fur on the furniture amidst the black Labrador hairs. I miss snuggling into his neck fur and having him curl up next to me for an afternoon nap. I miss rubbing those beautiful, big ears and his handsome face. I miss the smell of his Frito feet. I miss everything about him.
The one thing that makes his absence bearable is my deep faith that Heaven will include all the dogs (all pets) we've loved before, and that all of them will greet me at The Bridge when it's my time. I know that Tag will be at the front of the pack, leading the rest of the dogs I've loved and still miss. What a wonderful day that will be.
I hope you're having fun with the rest of the pack, Bubby. Mom misses you, but I know you already know that. I know you're close and watching over us. I know time is different there, so just know that while it's going to be a while for me, for you it will seem like the blink of your beautiful eyes.
Mom loves you.
Big hugs Donna

Sherry of createology: I still miss his super cute ways and antics and that sweet face and his fluffy heart shaped butt. I have never felt so in love with any other dog like I do with Tag. Loving Tears…
ReplyDeleteHi Sherry:
DeleteI know how much you loved him, too. Knowing how he touched others helps ease the sadness (a little). He sure was something, wasn't he?

What a beautiful boy! I found your site reading Tuedays wth Tag and always enjoyed the corgi perspective of life. I'm sure he is sending you love from the Bridge. Take care, Kathy
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy:
DeleteHe was my beautiful Bubby. I'm so glad he helped guide you here. Corgis are a unique breed, and he left a gaping hole in my heart. I'm looking forward to seeing him again.

He sure was a handsome lad. I know it hurts when any of them pass, but especially when they hug your heart. ❤️🐾❤️🐾
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. He was handsome. We've had so many that we've loved. It never gets easier, and it's a sadness that eases a little over time. We miss them all.

Dearest Maggie:
DeleteIt's taken me this long to be able to write replies, and even now, I'm in tears again. I'm so sorry for your loss. I know you understand how I'm feeling. Tag was a one-of-a-kind, and he's missed every day. I'm so glad you're visiting here again. I did the math, and on 3/15, I'll celebrate my SIXTEENTH blog anniversary! No reason you can't get back to it yourself, my friend.
Much love,
Donna

Oh Donna, I was thinking about this day two weeks ago. I had the tissues ready when I clicked on the post today. I just lost my Annie Marie on New Years Eve day, she was 22 years young. She was the last of our nine wonderful cats. When I lost my husband last Spring I would tell her every morning, 'it's just us two girls now, we have to keep going.' I hope you know how much I loved TWMHC, Tag. How can it be a year? My thoughts and tears are with you my dear friend.

Hi dear Shirley:
DeleteI'm so sorry for your loss. I had no idea. Twenty two years is a wonderfully long time to share your life with a pet. I can only imagine how painful her passing must have been for you. I do know how much you loved my little scamp. It feels like only yesterday he left me. It's taken this long for me to write replies, and even now, I'm in tears yet again. dang! Thank you for your kind words.
xoxo
Donna
