OKIE WAS THE WORLD TO ME, SHE WAS MY RIGHT ARM, MY HEART, MY WHOLE BEING..LIFE WITHOUT HER IS EMPTY. KNOWING ONE DAY I WILL SEE HER AGAIN IS THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS ME GOING.

IT IS SAID THAT TIME HAS A WAY OF HEALING BUT SO FAR TIME HAS MADE THE HURT WORSE...EVERY MINUTE OF THE DAY MY MIND IS ENGULFED IN THOUGHTS OF HER.

THE LOVE WE HAD FOR EACH OTHER WAS UNCONDITIONAL. IT IS A LOVE THAT I HAVE NEVER EVER SHARED WITH ANYONE OR ANYTHING.

OKIE WAS A VIVACIOUS LITTLE 8 POUNDER, SHE WAS ALWAYS AT MY SIDE OR IN MY LAP..IF I WENT INTO ANOTHER ROOM SHE WOULD BE THERE, WHATEVER I DID SHE WAS THERE. SHE LOVED TO PLAY WITH HER HUMANS! WAS NOT TO KEEN ON PLAYING WITH OTHER PETS. SHE WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO TRY TO GET HER MILKBONE.  SHE ALSO KNEW HOW MUCH YOU LOVED FOR HER TO PLAY WITH IT..SHE WOULD SHOW OFF FOR YOU..SHOWING HER LITTLE TEETH..AND ESPECIALLY WHEN SHE GOT OLDER IT WAS SO CUTE BECAUSE SHE HAD LESS TEETH..BUT THAT DID NOT HOLD HER BACK! 

SHE HAD HER OWN LITTLE CUP TO DRINK OUT OF, SHE WAS SERVED HER MEALS IN BED, SHE HAD THE LIFE OF A LITTLE PRINCESS..BUT IF I COULD HAVE HER BACK JUST FOR A LITTLE WHILE LONGER I WOULD MAKE IT EVEN BETTER FOR HER.

IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MUCH YOU DO, YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ALWAYS COULD HAVE DONE MORE.

I DO NOT THINK I HAVE ENOUGH TEARS.  I HAVE CRIED SO MUCH.. THE PAIN OF LOSING HER SEEMS UNBEARABLE. 

I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT HER..HER LITTLE SKIP THAT SHE DID WHEN SHE WALKED, THE SWEET LITTLE SMELL AROUND HER NECK, THE LITTLE WHITE STRIPE ACROSS HER CHEST..THE LITTLE "SINGING" SHE DONE WHEN I RETURNED HOME AFTER BEING GONE, EVEN FOR JUST A LITTLE WHILE...IT SEEMED IF SHE WAS SINGING "HALLELUIAH". I NEVER HAVE GOTTEN THAT GREETING FROM ANYONE ELSE! 

THE WORDS THAT I AM EXPRESSING SEEM SO INSIGNIFICANT FOR MY SPECIAL LITTLE GIRL. I  HOPE AND PRAY THAT SHE KNEW JUST HOW SPECIAL SHE REALLY WAS.
