You truly are the best mama anyone could ask for! And thank you to everyone else for your kind and endearing words for our sweet Gus! It is always nice to know that there are many others who can relate to your situation. It makes you feel less alone in your world. <br /><br />Love you (and your creative mind) Mom! xoxoMegan Windlandnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6195129022365610088.post-34975189892400948312011-03-10T03:02:02.553-06:002011-03-10T03:02:02.553-06:00I am sorry about Gus!

What a tragic accident. Nothing I can say will ease the pain.<br />I'm also sorry about your swap/MB experience. Some people just don't have the ability to be kind. They deserve our pity, not our time and our emotional interest. Let it go and move on.<br /><br />I was delighted to see the reason and read about the naming of your blog. Fabulous find!<br /><br />Oh and your card needs to come to my house! Can I give you my mailing address? I think it is the cutest card I've seen in many, many months.Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16538075264488169686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6195129022365610088.post-91249034016880606252011-03-09T17:02:32.513-06:002011-03-09T17:02:32.513-06:00What a beautifully written blog entry.
