KIRA goes on the road

Tomorrow Morgan and I take Kira to LA to stay with her second family the Newells. Patricia (Kira's Breeder) has welcomed Kira back to her home for the year while we're gone. This leaves me with an array of emotions.

I'm glad she'll be with Patricia. I know she'll be safe, she'll have fun with the other dogs, and she'll be well cared for. I'm worried she'll be sad and miss me and my family. I'm nervous she might get hurt.

But most of all, I'm sad. I'm sad that I won't have my Kira girl following me around the house. I won't have my Kira girl to walk with around our neigborhood. I won't have Kira girl to accompanly Myles and me to the park. I won't have Kira girl constantly begging to get up on the couch. I won't smell Kira girl's AWFUL gas. I won't be able to look into those beautiful eyes. And I won't have Kira girl to cuddle with.

We chose this path for the next year, so I have to keep my head up and know that she'll be okay, and I'll be okay. But I will be very sad for the next few days.

So it occured to me while reading your 3rd paragraph that perhaps Morgan can fill the Kira gap. With no job HE will follow you around the house, HE will walk with you around the neighborhood, HE will sit with you on the couch, HE will fill the house w/ gas (as husbands do) and when you are sad you can look into HIS eyes and cuddle with HIM!
