We Have Been Blessed

 with many wonderful "animal family members" over the years! Many of you will understand how they can become human. They have brought wonderful companionship, comfort, and happiness into our lives. We only have two now- our oldest cat Lucy, passed yesterday. She was 21 years old.

. It was time and we had to make the decision to help her. Its hard.

Whether a pet, a close friend , or even a parent I am reminded of these paraphrased lines from Robinson Jeffers.......

We had great joy of this body, Scatter the ashes.
