eat her last Thanksgiving supper, yes, she will be put to her final rest next week. A tear fills my eye, and to see her look at me still, with appreciation and permission to "eat the last morsel" in the other dog's dish. I acknowledge with a smile and tell her "go ahead" and she does.  
This moment brings me to memories of things/people I miss. I know it is inevitable, life and death, but I feel the moment now to acknowledge them, within myself. Maybe feeling the need to express this online, is simply a way to know that I am not alone and I am not the only one who misses at this time of year. I certainly do not want anyone to feel sad today, I just want to be certain I am not alone, when I remember. And next year, I will potentially write about my incredible dog that had her last thanksgiving dinner with me. Happy Thanksgiving all....and be thankful, for everything that is right in front of you.
