1/30/2023- My sweet Marley, it has been a day over 2-weeks since you left. I miss you more and more each passing day. It hurts knowing that I haven't seen you or kissed your sweet face in that long. Last week I had some good days and some rough days. Your ashes were brought home last week and that gave me some comfort knowing you are back home. I wear my necklace daily with some of your ashes and hold it close to my heart. It's the most special thing to me that I own. You will always be my baby and close to my heart. I went to VA this weekend and it wasn't the same without you being there. I hope you are running, barking, having endless treats and looking down at me and know how much you meant to me and how much i love you. I miss you SO MUCH!

2/12/2023- Marley, I miss you so much! I had a dream that you were in last night. It was so fitting that the dream involved Frosty Paws :) I miss having you around, your bark, smell, and sleeping with you. I miss how much you loved food (especially biscuits), going on walks, and following me around the house. I know you're in a better place now and in no pain, but it still hurts. I often think about our final days together and our final moments together, and it still hurts. I know it will get better in time, and will be a day by day thing. I will never forget you and you will always hold a piece of my heart. Giving you a big hug and kiss baby durl MarMar! Love you so much sweet girl!

3/7/2023- Marley, it's been almost two months since you left, and I miss you so much. I've had some better days, but also some days that are just as bad as when this all happened. I think about you everyday and wish I could hold, hug, and kiss you, once more. We've had some days of warmer spring like weather and those days are hard for me, as I miss taking you on a walk. I will miss the evenings sitting outside on the deck and letting you play your ball and eating a Frosty Paw :( I MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!

4/10/2023- Marley, you were on my mind and I wanted to send you a message. I LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH! I have thought about you a little more often this weekend. I hope you had a great Easter in doggy heaven. It's starting to get warmer day by day and makes it hard at times. I will miss sitting outside with you and you playing with your ball and having a Frosty Paw. I love you my sweet girl!

5/5/2023-Marley, I just wanted to stop by and let you know that I love you and miss you dearly. It's starting to get warmer here on a consistent basis after a cold spell. I still haven't been able to sit on the deck, nor go in your room. In time, I will get the courage to do so. I LOVE AND MISS YOU !!!!

6/15/2023- Marley, I can't believe it's been 5 months without you. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. This is all been hard and I miss you very much. I hope you can look down from dog heaven and see me and watch over me. I will be getting a tattoo of your paw print this weekend and I can't wait to always have something with me that I will never lose. I miss you so much and love you! I so wish I had you back and we could go back in time. I LOVE YOU!!

10/4/2023- Marley, I know that it has been almost 4 months since I have been on to write. I still think about you every day and know you have a special part of my heart and ALWAYS will! I'm glad that I got the tattoo of your paw print as it will be something that I will always have and remind me of you. I still wear your necklace every day with your ashes and will continue to do so. Fall has arrived and it will be getting colder soon. I have been thinking often about you and this time last year, you didn't have very much time left with me. I wish I could just go back in time, even if I know how things would end. In 12 days, we will be picking up a new dog that I'm sure will bring back happy memories of you as a puppy. It's weird how this all worked out and the timing, as I was expecting this to occur in January. I hope you had something to do with this and giving me a sign to start a new chapter. This has been very hard, sad, and happy, for me all at the same time, as I feel guilty and like I am moving on from you, but that isn't the case and never will be. You will ALWAYS be my number 1!! I love and miss you so much! Keep an extra eye on the new puppy Emma from heaven and guide her to be a great dog like you were!

1/10/2024- Marley, I haven't visited or wrote in a few months. You have been on my mind daily and so much as the 1-year of you leaving me approaches this weekend. I'm beyond hurt and sad, as it brings back so many emotions to that heartbreaking day last year. I miss you so much and you will never leave my heart. I missed you during the holidays and often wish, I could go back in time or just be with you once last time and give you a big hug, kiss, and a biscuit. Things haven't been the same since you left, nor will they ever be the same. Some days are easier and some are not. I understand that time passes, but the love for you and the place you left in my heart will never go away. I hope you can look down and see, how important you were to me and how much you were loved. Emma arrived home on 10/16 and is 5 months old now. She reminds me of you in some ways, especially her build, but not as sweet yet. I so wish you two could have met. I think she would have aggravated you lol, but you two would have ended up being close. I know all dogs are different, but my hope is that she will turn out to be a great dog like you were. Until we meet again, I love you, miss you, and hope you will look over me this weekend and especially on Sunday, and send me a sign of comfort. I LOVE YOU MARLEY!!
