Happy 17th Birthday in Heaven, Sampson
My love,
Today you would have turned 17. I honestly never had the breath to hope for 17 years with you, although I know there are some dogs that do live to that age. Still, the fact you are not here saddens me. Not a day goes by when I don’t think of you and Delilah and shed at least a few tears. Life here is lonely without you. I’m lost with no sense of purpose. Blogging no longer brings me joy, though I feel compelled on birthdays and death dates to push myself to write. There are no more new photos, no puppy kisses, cuddles or walks.
More than anything I wish Heaven had visiting hours, but then again, I’d probably never leave you.
Happy Birthday my sweet boy, I will always be grateful you chose me for your Mama.
