It's A Small World After All: Oh, sweet Scouters, my little Miss Moo. This is the one where I get mushy about my dog, whom I miss.
I'm crying too. Worth the wait as you definitely found all the perfect words to honor your beautiful, sweet Scout. She was lucky to have you and vice versa.
We miss her,too. I'll always see her sweet face peeking around the barn door when we went to meet her. She was ALWAYS your sweet, sweet "Scouters". M.and D.
Great piece of writing. I have tears as well, mine is 10 and a complete pain, but will miss her when she's gone.
This tears my heart into shreds: for you and your sweet Scout, for me and my sweet Polly, who now needs help standing and routinely gets lost in our house because her eyes don't work but who can still sniff out those crumbs ... for a few more months, I hope. Big, big hugs. Scout was a beautiful girl indeed.
Beautiful post Erin. I can't imagine how hard it was for you to lose Scout. Thinking of you guys often.
I totally did not know this until today when Ms. H mentioned it. This post brought tears to my eyes, and a smile to my face all in one. All the same, I am sorry I did not know earlier so I could have sent a card, or a warm hug your way.
This made me cry as I sit here with my first dog in over 20 years. She's just a year old and I realized that, like children, dogs grow far too quickly. But their life spans are massively short... I am so, so sorry for the loss of your sweet Scout. I am so happy that you have so many good memories of her, though. I hope your next dog friend fits into your family well... Hugs.
Don't forget the lessons the 'ole white preacher taught:::Dancing is a sin.
