May all dogs be loved.

I will know you in the trails we walked on.

Dad. You're a great-grandfather again!! Dexter Jeffrey Karl Hannan arrived today. Another wonderous little miracle. And a brother for Tegan. So proud of Rydra and grateful for Jeff. They are such wonderful parents. Wish you were here.

Snuggles and hugs and cuddles and kisses,
I will carry you in my heart forever.

In The Middle of this Nowhere ~ Hammock cerulean

I will know you in the field we ran on.

Missing you Miika. So much.

I will know you in living things everywhere.

Miika. It's been two months since we said goodbye. I think of you every day. Many times a day. Love you forever, sweet gentle angel.

There is an emptiness where you should be.

May all dogs be loved.

Our precious Miika. We miss you so. Think of you every day. Grief still visits. Tears still flow. But we'll forever cherish the wonderful moments we shared. We'll love you forever. Carry you in our hearts forever. Wherever we go. You will always be with us.

Parallel ~ Helmut Schenker

I will know you
In the rustling tree leaves
In the swaying grasses of the meadow
In the moon and stars of clear nights.
I will know you
In the scampering of the squirrels
In the songs of the birds
In the hill you played on.
I will know you
In the walks down our street
In the orange sunsets
In the hole in my heart.

Smile when you can. Cry when you need to.

Miika. We picked up your ashes today. The smallest of urns. You are home now. Forever safe and sound. Forever in our hearts.

Miika. I'll imagine you happy and healthy, running and playing with Kayla, Java and Kiira. Grief. Sorrow. Tears. Love. Gratitude. Snuggles, cuddles, kisses, hugs. Thank you for touching our lives, sweet beautiful gentle soul. We will forever miss you. Forever love you. Never forget you.

Miika. We miss you so much. So much. Thinking of you every day.

Miika

Not sure who the author is:

Some of us have already reached the golden age (being over 50), others haven't, but everyone should read this!
1. Now is the time to take advantage of deferred savings. Enjoy. They should not be kept for those who, perhaps, have no idea what you have sacrificed for it. There is nothing worse than leaving this money to a son-in-law, daughter or relative with big plans for what you have saved.
2. Stop worrying about the financial situation of your children or grandchildren, don't be ashamed to spend money on yourself! You have been supporting children for many years, you have taught them a lot and given them shelter. Now it's their turn to start making money themselves.
3. Don't overload yourself. It's easy to get sick, it's much harder to stay healthy. Keep fit, see doctors, get information on what to do to stay healthy.
4. Don't worry about the little things! You have already experienced so much in your life; you can remember a lot of good things, you can also remember bad things. Don't let the burden of the past stand in your way today and in the future. Feel the beauty of the present!
5. Regardless of your age, you love life.
6. Be proud of yourself - inside and out. Don't stop going to the hairdresser, beautician, dentist, buy yourself your favorite perfume. If you are nurtured on the outside, then a sense of self-esteem and strength is born on the inside.
7. Always keep up with the latest developments. Read, watch the news. Keep in touch with your old acquaintances, this is important at your age.
8. Some bloom in old age, others are stale. Life is too short to waste it. Spend your life in the company of positive, cheerful people - and life will be much more pleasant.
9. Resist the temptation to live with your children or grandchildren. Of course, it is pleasant to live surrounded by beloved relatives, but each of us has the right to our personal space. They should too.
10. Don't give up your hobbies. If you don't have them, get into these habits.
11. Smile. Laugh a lot. For any reason. Remember - you are lucky. You managed to live a long life. Many simply do not make it to those ages. And you did it, so have fun! Try to see the funny side of any situation!
12. Pay no attention to what they say about you, much less what they might think of you. They will do it anyway, and you are proud of yourself and your life. Let them talk, you shouldn't worry about it. They don't know what you've been through, they don't know what you know.

The time has come to enjoy the peace, the world of happiness!

AND REMEMBER: "LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO DRINK BAD WINE!"

Missing you Kiira.
