The field of his studies and practice is a very important one, and I hope you will pass my congratulations on to him.<br /><br />Of course, reading about dear Teddy's sudden passing away has made me cry, too. The loving bonding that we form with animals cannot adequately be described. Or at least I cannot properly describe it. I do hope that someday you will see Teddy again. Clearly you carry him in your heart and soul.<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974379645841145390.post-50222560862656269212016-02-20T15:30:09.802-06:002016-02-20T15:30:09.802-06:00Thank you so Bea.Thank you so Bea.donna bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507579686738843451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5974379645841145390.post-60570734644412900332016-02-20T11:50:18.786-06:002016-02-20T11:50:18.786-06:00I sometimes forget kittens come out so darn small!...I sometimes forget kittens come out so darn small!

We are so happy and proud for our son. Teddy did have a wonderful life and was loved by all here at the farm. I just can't handle losing my precious boy in one day. Thought the shock of it might help but it didn't.

Congratulations to your son too.<br /><br />Animals have a shorter life span and I have to tell myself when I lose them that I chose to have them already knowing this.
