It has been two months since Baylor died. And I still miss her every day. All I have to do is close my eyes to remember what she felt like. The way her fur softened at the nape of her neck or the way her eyes glistened in the sunlight. Sometimes I can even hear her and the way her collar would jingle as she walked from room to room. Sometimes the sorrow is so great that I don't want to open my eyes. But then the sunlight streams into the bedroom through the slats of the blinds, and I roll over and look outside. And I think....this would be a Baylor Day. And I smile and get out of bed. I truly believe that I am who I have become simply because I loved and was loved by that dog. For the past two months I have been working on a tribute to her. I finally finished it and it was so healing for me. Every picture on the video brings a smile to my face, and floods my heart with memories. She was not only my dog, but my companion who guided me through the pathways of life. She never judged me, she accepted me simply because I loved her. I believe that I will see her again, but until then....Bless the Bear. And please check out the new video at the bottom of my blog.
Love the video!! It must have taken you forever. What a lucky Bear to have had you to love her so much. I know you guys still miss her terribly but she is certainly in a place with no pain now and I have no doubt that she is smiling down on you each and every day.
ReplyDeleteWendy, the video tribute to Baylor is amazing!! She was so lucky to have a loving mommy!! You did a great job with the tribute. It was so sweet it brought me to tears. She couldnt have had a better loving family or asked for anything. You can tell she loved you guys as much as you loved her!!!
