Memories of K

My trip through my photo archives brought up many photos of my sweet Angel K.It made me realize that I now remember her in her prime rather than when she was sick.
What a joyful dog she was. She lived with a zest and love that taught me so much.
When I see her photos, I miss her but, mostly, I smile at the memories that fill my heart.

    I spend a lot of time looking over photographs of Ellie. It helps.

    Such a beauty. It took me a long time before I could look at pictures of Gizmo.

    That's when you know you've "arrived", dear friend.... when you can look upon your dearly departed family members' pictures & think about them with smiles instead of tears. I know K is happy to see this.

    Love~ Andrea
    XOXOXO

    She was a beauty, that's for sure. It takes time to get to the smiles. Working on that here too:)

    That is how I feel when I see pics of Twix now. I too think of her in her prime and not when she was sick when I remember her (which is several times a day). Sorry we havne't been by to visit, things have been busy here. I'm sorry R has to have surgery too but I know Shyla will be the perfect nurse for you both!

    I am still grieving the loss of our precious Wendy, and today your post has reminded me today that eventually that sadness leaves and the good memories return--Thank-you for that.

    Special dogs are rare but you were fortunate to find her.
    We remember her fondly and smile.

    I am so so happy the smiles out weigh the sadness. Of course she is always a part of you.

    I just got caught up on your last few posts. Best wishes for you and R on your respective surgeries! What a good idea for a calendar, to use past photos of your dogs. It's so hard to lose them. K must have been truly unique.

    The good memories are what will always remain. Sometimes it just takes a little longer to get there, but somehow we do.

    It is funny how the human heart works, isn't it? I guess if we couldn't transition from grief to fond memories, continuing on wouldn't be possible. Although I must confess, I can still have a good cry over my sweet old boy Dylan, depending on my mood when I look through his photo album. He predated most of the digital era....

    I was recently paging through some of my photos of my lost dog partner Willow. I was shocked at how she looked towards the end of her life. I think sometimes memory can be very kind to us. And I'll be happy if that is also true of how people will remember me. Only the good stuff! :)

    She was lovely! And the beauty of memory is that it phases out some of those less than wonderful things and leaves us with the good things to cherish.
