Gracie, A Year Today


FiveRoooooers

Recommended Posts

Gracie, my Girl With The Twirl.

 

A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam

And for a brief moment its glory

and beauty belong to our world.

But then it flies again

and though we wish it could have stayed

We feel so lucky to have seen it.

You stayed not even four months and you have been gone a year today.

Jan, it is hard to believe it has already been one year since Gracie left. The beautiful white dog with the lovely tan spots, those spectacular ears at attention, the melting brown eyes that watched so intently. Gracie was a very special girl.

 

So many lovely moments were packed into those short months. Like the butterfly in the sunbeam her time was short but glorious. As she twirls away at the Bridge, Gracie holds a very special place in her heart for Camp Greyhound. :beatheart

Jan, I can't believe it's been a year. She cherished every moment with you.

It's terrible to think that it has been a year. I thank you for the months you gave her...

 

I think of all that time spent in a house where she was no longer wanted, when there wasn't anywhere near enough time in the place she was wanted and loved.

 

When I get home tonight I'll have to look for my Gracie pics and videos. She was so full of light.

That is really beautiful, Jan.

Sending lots of hugs as you remember your Angel Gracie.

Dakota is a "twirler" too, and when he does it, I always think about Gracie.

I was just thinking about that twirling girl the other day and how I fell in love with her long distance. Thank you for sharing her with us.
