Hi, this is Tabbymom Jen. I want to thank you all again for your wishes and comments about Bonnie. I'm overwhelmed by the response. We're sad, but doing ok. We have so many fond memories of Bonnie. Please remember her with smiles, not tears. Victor and I owe each and every one of you a visit... but it takes time and I have to stop when I start crying again. I'm also giving Victor lots of attention. But really, we're ok.
For the hugging holiday this weekend, I'd like to share a poem from my favorite story-teller, Shel Silverstein.
Hug O'War
I will not play at tug o' war.
I'd rather play at hug o' war,
Where everyone hugs
Instead of tugs,
Where everyone giggles
And rolls on the rug,
Where everyone kisses,
And everyone grins,
And everyone cuddles,
And everyone wins.
- Sheldon Allan Silverstein
Please remember Bonnie with smiles and laughter. We heard thunder rolling in today, and I'm sure it was a game of Thundering Herd of Elephants at the Rainbow Bridge. When they crashed into the fountain, it started raining. And the lightning? Kitty laser eyes, of course! Memories are golden, and we will always cherish our memories of Bonnie.
Now, let's all cheer up and move on, or she'll find a way to whap us all!
