For my girl.
I took this after 10PM last night because I wanted the
light of the candles to flicker gently over the sweet images of Abby.
It is a beautiful memorial.
I have ordered Abby a special urn that is being created just for her
by a talented potter. It will be placed with all of the things that I
find of special significance for me and Abby.
I hope Stella O'Houligan can see that Abby's quilt is what everything sits upon.
But I have angels and several inspirational Jim Shore pieces including a
beautiful carved cross. Of course Abby's pictures are here.
A gift of surprise from Abby.
Her pawprints all over my grill.

As I was finishing up ordering a memorial plaque for Abby to use in
a living garden I will create for her, (Abby's Garden) I felt the rush of fur at
my feet, just now. I looked and there is no cat in the room except
Gracie who is in the windowsill as I type this. Abby spent many
of her last days and hours in a little box underneath my feet, so
she just rushed by me now. I am posting this today because I want
to preserve that memory. She is letting me know she is still here with me.

I love you
Abby
to the Moon,
girl
to the Moon
and back
again
and
again
and
again.
