Moochie. I will never forget the day I went to see all siberians at the foster house. I was looking for a black and white male. I went out into the field and out of the blue this beautiful grey/brown/white female comes bounding up and knocks me over. I knew you were the one!!

We have been through soooo much together. The death of my mother and 3 grandparents, failed relationships, job changes, 2 moves, marriage, and the birth of 2 children. You were there for me in times when no one else seemed to be and understood me always. You sensed when I was sad and were always by my side. I miss you so much and its so hard right now that I am such a mess. It was so sudden and you still acted like a pup. My only solace is that you did not suffer and for that I am thankful.

I miss the socks "buried" in the corners of the room, I miss the toilet paper pieces and napkins chewed up, I miss the faint howl after your dinner, and the scratching at the door to let me know you wanted in. I miss the nose marks from you pulling the doors open. I miss turning around and having you right there always afraid you were missing something. I miss the play bows and the butt scoots. I miss the age warts on your nose that I had come to find cute. I miss you rubbing your face in my hair. I miss the stare downs for food. I even miss you humping Kuk to remind him you were boss. I miss watching you stand up and cleaning off Evans high chair (now I have to). I miss hiding on you and having you look all over to find me and never giving up until you did. I miss having you "find your banana" and you licking it like it was your puppy whenever I was pregnant. I miss the road trips back to Michigan and the walks through the woods. I miss watching you and Kuk play like you were still pups. I miss the diving under my legs thinking if your head was hidden that your whole body was hidden. I even miss the manipulative "attitude" you had because it reminded me that you were so much more than just a dog. You had SOOOO much personality that we always said you were a little "person". I especially missed you laying next to my bed last night.

I know you were though alot over the years but Dr. Burns always seemed to know what to do to get you back to yourself. Your life was full, I only wish I had the chance to say goodbye. I feel so guilty for not spending even more time with you. Having kids seemed to change things and I'm sorry. I tried and I hope you had a good life. You know I would do anything for you. WE miss you more than you know. Kuk is lost. He's wandering around and I can tell he's very sad. For almost 12 years you two were inseparable and I hope he can cope. I am trying to comfort him but he is so independent and different from you.

We love you and miss you. Say hello to my mom in heaven !! Tell her all about her wonderful grandkids !

A POEM FOR YOU:
Sunlight streams through window pane
unto a spot on the floor....
then I remember,
it's where you used to lie,
but now you are no more.
Our feet walk down a hall of carpet,
and muted echoes sound....
then I remember,
It's where your paws would joyously abound.
A voice is heard along the road,
and up beyond the hill,
then I remember it can't be yours....
your golden voice is still.
But I'll take that vacant spot of floor
and empty muted hall
and lay them with the absent voice
and unused dish along the wall.
I'll wrap these treasured memorials
in a blanket of my love
and keep them for my best friend
until we meet above.
