I miss you so much my little man. Mommy's good boy. You were always there for me. Your life was nothing but love, you knew no hate. We walked you and played with you. You never tired, you could go on and on. You never wanted to take your pills, and you knew when I hid them in the cheese.
Mating you with Trooper was one of the best things you did. We got your son Rodney. He is so lonely now, he looks for you all over, and I try to give him lots of love, because I know he can't tell me how lost he is without you. Miss Kitty looks for you too. They feel the sadness in our home.
I knew when I took you to the vet that morning, you were in distress. I didn't want to believe that you were never coming home. I stayed with you till your little heart stopped beating. I took your little body home and Daddy cried. I had never seen him cry till that day.
Daddy and Joe dug a deep hole and we buried you in the warm sun. We are going to plant flowers in the spring. I look around the house, and yard, but all I see is a grave. I know your soul is in heaven and you are well, happy, and running all over. I just need to get the hurt and pain to calm down. I pray Jesus will be kind enough to help me hurt a little less each day.
I love you my baby. Oliver you will be in my heart always.
Love your Mom.
