Sam belonged to my son and we all lived together. He was the perfect companion. Obedient and so easy to train.He was very energetic and needed a lot of excercise. He was very protective but I never ever saw him get angry with humans. He was such a beautiful dog and everyone loved him.We used to take him to the seaside every weekend and he'd go miles along the beach with my son.All labrador retrievers adore water and Sam and his beloved Candy who belonged to my daughter (but moved in with me eventually) were no exception / we just could'nt keep them out of the sea !I have some beautiful memories of Sam and Candy and they can never fade.I remember most of all how gentle they both were with my Grandchildren and the the happy times we had with them and even though we had other animals they all fitted in together with love !His Soul Mate Candy couldn't bear to be parted from him and when he passed over she followed him soon after. They were never parted in life and and so it's fitting that they are together now.They truly could'nt live without each other! I've brought little Chloe for you two to look after for me. My son bought Chloe for me to ease Sam's passing. She was bought from kennels and was 2yrs old . Unfortunately I only had her for 4 weeks and 2 of those were spent in kennels at the vets.After 3 days and a visit to the vets she was found to have 'parvo'we were told at the kennels they had missed giving her the injections and she'd picked it up from a stray.The kennels had to be closed down and disinfected thoroughly but that did'nt help Chloe. So sad that I only had her for a short while but she was loved the same as the others and I know we can renew the friendship when we meet again ... Bless you all. xxx

X My Angel X

My Angel

Just to hear your voice again

Just to feel the warmth when we embrace

To see the smile on your face

To see your eye Light up once more!

That is all i want

Now and Forevermore.

xxx Before i die xxx

I want your laugh again to light up the room

I want your hand to touch mine

Just like it used to

I want so many things

That i can still see so well in my mind

But the things i want all lead back to one thing...

You streching far and wide

Across my mind

Everything about you i miss so much

I would give everything i own for just another hour of your love

However this cannot be...

So i will take the long road

Waiting a while... Getting back on to the horse in style

Counting the time until again you are mine

When that time comes life will be Sublime

X God Bless All Angel's Including Mine X

The Lord's Prayer,

Our father, who art in hevan,

Hallowed be thy name,

Thy kindgdom come, thy will be done,

On earth as it is in hevan.

Give us this day our daily bread,

And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive those who respass again us,

And lead us not into temptation,

But deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

The power and the glory,

For ever and ever Amen.

X A Beautifull Hymn X For Angel's X

Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy,
Whose trust, ever childlike, no cares could destroy,
Be there at our waking, and give us, we pray,
Yours bliss in our hearts, Lord, at the break of the day.

Lord of all eagerness, Lord of all faith,
Whose strong hands were skilled at the plane and the lathe,
Be there at our labours, and give us, we pray,
Your strength in our hearts, Lord at the noon of the day.

Lord of all kindliness, Lord of all grace,
Your hands so swift to welcome, your arms to embrace,
Be there at our homing, and give us, we pray,
Your love in our hearts , Lord, at the eve of the day.

Lord, of all gentleness, Lord of all calm,
Whose voice is contentment, whose presence is balm,
Be there at our sleeping, and give us, we pray,
Your peace in our hearts, Lord, at the end of the day.

XXX Hevans Gates XXX

Stepping off the plane

Your eyes light up

A path of pure light

Shines your way

To Hevans Gates

So pure so Beautifull

You are pulled closer

As you walk down the path

Each and every step

You forget about pain, worrys and fear

Instead you are filled with Peace and Glory

Years dates and times become a thing of the past

As happiness and beauty now always last's

Now as you open the gate in to the Mysteriously comforting golden haze

You see those you have loved and lost along your way

Now as the gate shuts you begin your life anew

In a Paradise made just for you

So we blow you a kiss on your way to Hevans Gates

Then we softly say....

Take care dear one See you again some day xxx

...Gently...

Gently the rose petals fall

Being carried off from the floor

Dropping one by one

Until away a breeze softly carries them all

You where the same

We watched you

Our whole lives through

Being strong and brave

A rock to lean on

A person to talk to

A person to laugh with

A person to cry with

Until the day came

When we had to watch you pass away

We did not want to

It should not have happened the way it did

But the lord wanted you

And we could not stand in the way

So gently a wind came

It carried you up above

To a place where there is neverending life and love

So remember those who love you so much

When our time comes

We look forward to seeing you standing in the light

With an endless supply of love

The Love that Angel we miss so much

In Memory of a Special Pet
By Unknown

With tears of grief and heavy hearts
we said goodbye to you.
Animal friends as sweet as you
have been a precious few.

You stayed with us
and played with us
and gave us all your love.
Now we give the gift of peace to you
and thank our Lord above
for the years you joined our family
with your patient, gentle face.
we'll always keep you in our hearts
in a very special place.

All the memories you made with us
are surely here to stay,
for what love has already given us
death could never take away.

X The Gift X

I got a gift!

It came with no fancy ribbons or bows

It was very simple but more special than any other gift before

It was filled with love and happiness

To last a lifetime through

It came with its own personalty and feelings

As well as many other things

That made me think, smile and scream!

Now my gift has gone back from where it came

An incredible gift i wont ever get again

So all i can say is until i see the gift again

I want everyone to know

The gift that gave me everything

x Was you Angel with a heart as pure as gold x

Magic Of A Rainbow

I'll never see a rainbow
That I won't think of you;
Though days seem bleak and dreary
The sun is shining through.

A symbol of God's love fulfilled
In beauty, hope and grace;
A rainbow is a mirror
Reflecting His own face.

It arches o'er the mountains
With Heaven its domain;
Its brilliant colors wakened by
The grayness and the rain.

Now may I see the rainbows sent
To ease my broken heart,
Promising His healing love,
Shine through when teardrops start.

Miraculous, magical rainbows,
Blessing the sadness with peace;
God gently smiling and touching,
Bidding the sadness cease.

♥ I Believe ♥
(Written By Skip Ewing and Donny Keyes Copyright 2002)
(Song performed by Diamond Rio)

Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And it's like you haven't been gone
A moment from my side
Like the tears were never cried
Like the hands of time are holding you and me
And with all my heart I'm sure
We're closer than we ever were
I don't have to hear or see
I've got all the proof I need
There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, I believe

That when you die your life goes on
It doesn't end here when you're gone
Every soul is filled with light
It never ends and if I'm right
Our love can even reach across eternity
I believe, I believe

Forever you're a part of me
Forever in the heart of me
I will hold you even longer if I can
The people who don't see the most
Say that I believe in ghosts
And if that makes me crazy
Then I am
'Cause I believe, oh I believe

There are more than angels watching over me
I believe, oh I believe
Every now and then
Soft as breath upon my skin
I feel you come back again
And I believe
'Cause I believe, oh I believe.

~ I Promise ~
(Author Unknown)

I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
I promise I will remember
How to live and how to play.

I promise that I'll dry my tears
When the heartache goes away.
I promise that it won't take years
But I need another day.

I promise that I'll live my life
As you would want me to.
I promise when I'm facing strife
I'll face it straight and true.

I promise I will endeavour
To do the best I can each day.
I promise I won't cry forever
But I need to just today.
