My precious China Blue was an exceptional creature loved so deeply and dearly. China found me in the backyard of my grandmother's home in Providence, RI on Columbus Day, 1989. We were inseperable. A connection and match made in heaven and forever. Beautiful China Blue was my life line, as we spent almost two decades together. I can't believe that I haven't died of a broken heart from missing her. If there is a heaven, then my beloved China Blue is there waiting for me to join her someday. Dear China, You stayed a year longer in this world when you didn't have to. You held on so long because you loved me and I needed you. Thank you for adopting me on that memorable fall day. You always made me so happy. I can not see or hear you, but your presence is inside me and your name is written inside my broken heart. Love, Mommy.
