Dear Tara,
How has it only been a month since we said goodbye? It seems like so much longer since I last saw your beautiful face, heard the sound of your purr, and held your beautiful little body in my arms...you always were the perfect fit.
I wish I knew that you were ok without me. I try to imagine that you and your big sister Sashi have found each other and are taking kitty heaven by storm. I think you two together would be a force to be reckoned with.
I've put all of your toys in a special keepsake box with chickens all over it. When I saw it in the store it made me smile because you loved chicken more than just about anything. Your litter pan, food and water bowls, and cat carrier are all cleaned up and waiting in the garage for another kitty to use them. There's hardly a trace of you around yet I feel your presence everywhere.
My days seem so much longer and emptier without you here. You're still my first thought when I wake up in the morning and the last thing I think about when I lay my head down at night. Each night I still softly whisper goodnight to you...have you heard me?
You were perfect, but you knew that. From the moment we met you instantly stole my heart, and from the moment I opened your carrier in the living room that first day you made this house your home, and you made the house a home simply because you were there.
I know that you loved me until your last breath. I hope and pray that you know I will love you until mine. The memories of the time we had together will live on in my heart forever.
Until we meet again,
Mommy
