Healing Heartache

To add to the stress of selling our house and trying to find one to buy, we lost our oldest cat about a month ago. She was 13.5 years old. I had her longer than the husband. I received a few cards soon after she died, and I couldn't even read them. A piece of my heart was missing.

Then yesterday, I received a card from Lily Munchkin. Her artwork was so sweet and thoughtful that I had to share it.

You can see my sister's written explanation of this one at the top: Angel dancing on the clouds up in Heaven.
(Do you see how she signs her name with a heart? She noticed me doing that on my projects when she was here at Christmas and she started doing the same :)


This one is Lily, Husband, and me walking our three cats on leashes. Can you tell we have (had) a black cat, gray cat, and white cat?


Lily's card really cheered me and I will treasure it always.

    Oh, this is soooo sweet, Erica! There's nothing more precious than a child's artwork. I know this has helped you through your sad time. I am so sorry for your loss.

    What a sweet card Erica, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Our fur babies really are part of the family.

    I hope you have found your dream home by now.
    Hugs Lynn
