Heartbroken

Our family is grieving the loss of our first pet—little Bilas.  On Saturday morning Jon had to put our kitten down.  Although she was her normal playful self earlier in the day, after breakfast I discovered her lying in her bed unresponsive.  Other symptoms make us suspect she ingested some kind of poison.

Isaiah helped bury the little bundle and both kids made stones for her grave.  Claire exchanged a framed photo of her favorite horse on her desk for a picture of her furry friend.  We’re all pretty upset by the sudden loss, but we’re working through the grief.  Remembering all of Bilas’ funny antics helps.  It’s amazing how that little fuzz ball wound herself around our hearts during those two short months that she shared with us!
