My heart goes out to you. I love that you hung his stocking - I know it'll be a bittersweet holiday season for you, but it's one way to make him a part of it. He'll always be in your heart, of course. I like the idea of him, Edgar and Buckley together - that's a very comforting thought. Oh Laura, I’m so sorry about Matisse! My heart goes out to you.

You marked Buckley's passing exactly as I would have, or will, next year when I face Matisse's anniversary of his passing away. Sadly, Matisse lost his battle with cancer on the 19th. I hope that he is romping around full of health in kitty heaven right now, and has met Buckley and Edgar who can hopefully show him around. I cried when I read about your memories with the Christmas ornaments. We put up Matisse's Xmas stocking yesterday, as he will always be our special boy. Wishing you much peace. --Laura What a beautiful post, Ingrid. You marked Buckley’s passing exactly as I would have, or will, next year when I face Matisse’s anniversary of his passing away.

I like to think that Buckley and your Edgar have maybe met by now and are comparing notes - and perhaps agreeing that they, too, miss us and the time they spent with us.

Unfortunately in our human lives, a little rain must fall, and to feel such deepdeep pain is a sure indicator that alot of loving has taken place! "It is better to have loved and lost, than to never loved at all". I will remember Buckley while quietly, invisibly standing beside you. If she was ANYTHING like my little Edgar, she had to be r-e-a-l-l-y something! I share your grief and your sadness. Take comfort in your memories of little Buckley and cry, cry, cry...tears help to heal our hearts.
