Daisy

My dearest Daisy, From the day I met you, 20 years ago, I knew that our life together would be amazing. At that time we didn't know where we would go or where we would end up or how long we had together but somehow the universe decided to grant us as many years as possible. As we both grew older each year, I knew our time at some point would be limited. You never waned, and stayed amazingly strong which was undoubtedly due to our love for one another. I always call you my "travelling soldier" because of how often we would move to new places, you eager to see your new world and me just as excited to experience it with you. As you started to grow more into your elderly ways, I knew it was time to help you feel as comfortable as possible. So I began to ensure that you had everything you needed. Within your last few years, I knew at some point you would need to go off on your own adventure and step into the universe without me by your side. Sadly, the day came sooner than I would have asked for and knew this was your choice. Our last moments together were indeed sad. I reminded us of our past lives, telling you stories of us growing up and singing some of our favourite songs. The morning you left this earth to go on your adventure, I reminded you of how strong and brave you are, telling you how much I love you. Daisy -- I know that where you are is happier, warmer and you are able to jump higher than ever before. You are able to play and rest in the sunshine without pain. I know I can't be there with you, but I know that you are okay and always will be okay. Momma loves you so much my girl. Not a day will go by that I won't think of you or see you laying in your favourite spot above my head. If you ever need to come back home if just for a moment, find me in my dreams and I will hold you as long as you need. I love you!
