Farewell Little Friend


Well, Nathan lost his little buddy Bear last night. He had Bear for almost 3 years (8th birthday gift). Nathan took such great care of him. He never bit him once and always tried to jump up in his hand when it was feeding time. He seemed to know when it was time for food or a yummy snack as he would dig out of his hole and poke his head out. He was a smart little guy. So, anyways, we buried him last night, in the dark in my flower bed. We put a special flat stone over the grave to make sure nothing dug him up. This morning, Kaitlyn, woke up and asked if we could dig up the hole to see if Bear had gone to heaven yet. UMMMM, no. We had to have the whole "the body stays here but your spirit goes up" talk again. I think she finally got it as she decided that it would be gross to dig him up and see is body.
