There isnt a day that goes by that I dont think of you.You have touched my heart in places I didnt know I could feel.In your brief 4 1/2 months here on this earthly place, you have taught me so much about the fragility of life. We can never take life for granted as we dont know how long we have.I never dreamed that day when I took you to the vet, that I would never return home with you.I know you must have been tired and you wanted to go to that peaceful place where you would no longer be falling and breaking those blood feathers. Having the 2 injuries so close together, must have tired you out. I know the place you are is perfect and that you are flying free as a bird was meant to fly, but my heart is broken that we will never celebrate your first birthday together.I will never get to see you as a grown up boy.You were so handsome and not like any other. I know you have come back to visit your brothers just by the way they often stop and just stare at the ceiling.They feel you there. I so wish I could see what they see, but being human I can not. Although I dont see what they see, I have no doubt that you are there. You always entertained me with your antics.Dad misses you nibbling on his ear as you perched on his shoulder. I miss you trying to fly backwards! So many wonderful memories,my Little Eddie.You were named after your human daddy, who predeceased you.I hope you two meet up. He would have been so proud of you as we all were. Katie, Big Ed, Auntie Joanne all loved you. Auntie Joanne helped raise you into the big strong boy you were. You loved those special hand feedings and didnt want to wean too fast as that formula was oh so tasty.I could go on and on about your special qualities. You have changed my life so much. I can never thank you enough. I am grateful we had this time together, although a little mad we didnt have more. I know God above has a plan and I am trying to accept that. If there was anything to be learned by your death, its to NEVER take anything for granted.I know God loaned you to me for such a short time, but I cherish that time I had.Please my sweet, never forget how very special you were to me.I will love you though all eternity.I will never ever forget you.You live always in my heart. Until we meet again.

Your Earthly Mom,
Kathy

P.S. Next time you visit Leo and K.C. tell them I love them and for K.C. not to try to mate with Isaac. They are both boys and Isaac gets a little annoyed although I love his singing!!!!
