Thank you so much for coming into my life so we could take care of each other for the past 11 years. Little did I know the minute I saw that precious face I would fall completely in love. You gave me so many wonderful memories that I will forever treasure. The numerous walks where everybody wanted to stop us just to pet you, playing in the back yard, running straight for me thinking I should know better and get out of your way-oh what the neighbors must have thought, following me room to room around the house, trying to get you down off the hill you begged to go up and potty on, trying to catch snowballs, all the enthusiasm when mentioning going to grandpas(because u knew he always had food for u or would make you some), alerting me when the doorbell rang (whether in the house or on tv),skimming under the garage door the minute it started to open to welcome me home, the trips we finally got to take to Florida to walk on the beach and play in the ocean and so many many many more. You were my everything and the only one who knows it all. You would just sit and listen and cock that head and then give kisses when needed. You could make me smile and laugh at any time and just make every day a little better. You were just such a knucklehead. Thank you for the beautiful bright rainbow this week. You knew mama was struggling with the decision she made (although it was the right thing for you)and u let me know that you were happy and healthy again, running and playing.
Sweetie I love you and you will always have my heart. Until we can be together again.....HUGS & KISSES -- I LOVE U.

3-29-08 Hi pumpkin. I just wanted to tell you that I love you. Its been a year since we had to say goodbye and I still miss you every day. Mama has been sharing Bandit stories with new friends she made over the year. You still make me laugh and smile when I think and talk about you. There are also times alone at home when the tears are still there. I can't put into words just how much I miss you and all your little antics. Thanks for still listening to me every day with things that go on here. Ok baby, until next time "mama loves you, hugs and kisses".

But I do want to thank you for sending Jalen to me. He needed a good home and you knew he could have one here. He just came over and wanted to say hi. He's so funny....he makes me laugh like you always did. Until next time, Hug & Kisses, I love you.
