Happy Birthday to your sweet boy. Your tribute video is wonderful. Maybe someday I can get the courage to make one of Keesh, but not yet. Sure know how you feel about missing them, seems it's a hole in the heart that never quite heals. Hugs to you.

For those of you not on Facebook, there is a "feature" called "On this day" where it will show you posts you made on this date in previous years. When I posted last year to let everyone know of Visuddha's passing, it was the day after... which was yesterday. My post began with something along the lines of "I don't want to post this here because I don't want Facebook to remind me next year, or 7 years from now...." and yesterday, there was that reminder. Stupid Facebook.
It is possible to set dates (or people) that you do not want Facebook to bring up using this feature. I won't do that ... I'll face the emotions that come up every time I'm reminded of Jupiter, Star, Tia, Visuddha, and human friends who are no longer in my life for one reason or another. It still sucks though.
Thank you to all of you for wishing him a happy birthday, and watching the video that was gut-wrenchingly difficult to make.
My baby dog was obnoxious and vicious, bigger in spirit than any dog he encountered, with courage and tenacity to match. But he was my sweet boy, who squirmed his way into my heart. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
It's so hard when that shows up...so many of the "On this day" have Lena in them. Three years ago, four years ago...and there she is somewhere in the picture, such a huge part of our lives, always.
I still have Mollys picture as my header pic and I don't know when or if I'll take it down. Maybe someday but not yet.
It's bittersweet to see it there, but heart breaking to think of moving it. I know exactly what you mean about the day pop ups.
Another year, another Facebook reminder. Not that I needed it.
Happy Birthday, little one. Your birthday (Halloween), I wasn't interested in answering the door and handing out candy, so dad had to do it. We only had about 14 kids this year.
Yesterday, I took Jackson and Kira for a run in the morning. I used new shoes that hurt my feet, so when we got home I redid the laces and went back out without them. I ran the half mile that you and I walked when you were tired. Then the family played a new board game in the afternoon. I went to bed early, tired from the time change and the emotions I shoved down and ignored all day.
This morning, Facebook memories showed me your face. It is my profile picture again, just for a while, as the tears fall.
I miss you, baby dog. Much love,
Your mama
Ahhhhh, Shana. Giant hugs flying your way, and Happy Birthday greetings being sent to The Bridge. Here on earth, the beloved memories fill our hearts even though our eyes may be blinded by tears. Forever safe and forever honored.
Much love to both you and your precious Halloween baby boy,
Marianne
Hugs to you, Shana...Happy Birthday in Heaven, Visuddha.
The reminders just suck.... but I have changed the setting on Facebook so the reminders don't come up... I can't remember exactly how, but I think you can hide it at least. Thinking of you... Keesh's death date is coming up in 3 days... I'm sure I will be a mess, or just a little worse then I normally am. Hugs.....
Happy late birthday Visuddha. And big hugs to his mama. Love is forever .
Happy Birthday, Visuddha!
