Having a very difficult moment in my life right now.

I have had one of the best, most loving and dedicated companions for nearly 11 years of my life and she unfortunately passed away this week.  My dearest dog only 2 lbs but full of love, Tampika "aka" (Pika) has returned to her maker.  I new this day would come and I would like to say I tried to prepare myself for it, but nothing ever can.  She was so precious to me and I will miss her oh so ever GREATLY.  It was unexpected and I can't tell you how much I am going to miss her.  I had her through some of the toughest moments of my life, things I couldn't have gotten through without that companionship, and I can tell you that I know she was sent here for that very purpose.  It is going to be extremely hard for me to cope with for the next while, all in all while dealing with a newborn baby a 2 1/2 yr old who asks about her daily and the up and down hormone levels from having a baby.  I know with god's great plan and I know this includes our beloved pets, that I will see her again someday and hopefully she will be as excited as I will be. Much love to my sweet Pika!!!!
