Goodbye, Buddy

We lost our best friend, Andre, today from cancer. He was ten years old and we have had him since we got married. We learned of his cancer about 2 months ago and we enjoyed him as long as we could until he was at a point where he was suffering. It was a very sad day for all of us. The vet sent him home to spend the afternoon with the kids and Scott went with him tonight as he went peacefully to Heaven to be with all of our furry friends. We took lots of pictures today so we could remember him at his last moments. He was happy and knew that we loved him. Annie and Daffodil definately know he is gone, as Annie is laying on his bed. It breaks my heart to write this but it is life and all living things must die.

We all sat at the dinner table tonight and we went around the table and told what we loved most about Andre. Ollie loves that he likes to wrestle him. Preston loves that Andre liked to cuddle him. Amelia loves that he was always there when someone got hurt. Isabelle loves that Andre was so cute and hopes he has a good new life in Heaven. She likes that he was a good dog. We all loved the fact that Andre would sit but always wanted one paw to be on us.





Oliver asked me before bed if daddy could bring him back to life...
