An open letter to my girls-Moki and Teenie

It was 8 very long months ago that I last kissed your sweet faces, smelled your wonderful puggie smells, and held you both in my arms--I didn't want to let you go. For this whole time, I couldn't even look at your pictures, but today, I did. I looked at every, single picture, remembered every, single memory, and cried what I hope is every, single tear.

Because even though Mommy misses you more than she can ever say, she was very happy to see that you've been adopted by a nice woman who has a special place in her heart for sweet older girls just like you.

It's just hard right now because in my heart, I always hoped I'd be able to get you back someday. It is bittersweet, my darlings, but I am trying to focus on the latter and not the former.

I'll always love you, my dearest babies :heart: and will always miss my precious girls, but am so glad you've found your forever place.

I can't even imagine what you've gone through knowing how much you love them. Pug hugs.

Hugs to you, Kim.

Thank you, pug friends...I have to say, this has been a difficult day.

(And I am now the queen of the understatement--as well as an unwitting poet.)

Thanks again.

I can't imagine how hard it is to do the right thing for your girls when it hurts you so much. I hope each day it gets easier.

i, too, can't imagine the heartache. at least you know they are in a good home. hugs to you.

It's been three years today and damn if it doesn't still hurt like hell. I know they were adopted and loved, but I still think about them, dream of them, and waking up this morning, it was like a kick in the heart all over again.
Wish I could smell their little heads just one more time.

You obviously love them very much, or it wouldn't hurt so bad. I don't know the whole story, but just wanted to offer a .

Me too Kim. Hug the babies that are with you still.

Why does today seem like such a melancholy day?

Yes, today is very melancholy. Thoughts of long ago, of mistakes made, of decisions regretted. I think I should just go back to bed.

Thanks you guys.

Huge hugs to you, Kim.

Thinking of you, Kim.

Hugs. At least you will always know that you put them first.
