Muffin is home. I picked up her ashes on Monday.

My friend had the picture made for me, and you can't see it in this, but across the bottom it says "Muffin Forever in Our Hearts." That's her favorite toy, little blue chirpie bird. I bought a bracelet maker for my DGD for Christmas, and the day after (which was also the day after Muffin crossed the bridge) my DD opened it to see how it worked. She flipped open the instruction booklet and that particular bracelet was called "The Rainbow Bridge." I am certain that was my first sign from my sweet baby, and I requested one be made for her memorial. So that's the bracelet on the box. I would like to add a pizza or taco bell scented candle. :lol: I can't think of any "normal" scent that would be fitting.

I keep thinking I'm doing better, finally accepting that she's gone, thinking my heart has begun healing....until someone brings her up, or gives me hug, or offers condolences. I can talk about her sometimes now, just a little bit, and smile instead of cry. I find myself missing the little things she did now....if I approached her with shoes on, she would cower and/or run, thinking she was going to the vet. Every time I sneezed, she had a special mew she would offer...her little "bless you." Shnookie and Kibby are both a tremendous comfort. I've had way more "shnuggles" than usual, and on the days or nights that Shnookie is otherwise occupied, Kibby fills in. Even Oscar has added a 20-30 minute cuddle with me before he goes off to bed.

I am so very incredibly blessed.
 
(((Anne))) I'm glad Muffin is home with you once again. I love her memorial. My hope is that, as the days gone on, you find it easier to smile when thinking of your sweet Muffin. I can't image how hard it must be. I'll be thinking of you.
 
What a beautiful memorial for Muffin. I'm sure seeing the bracelet first thing was a sign from Muffin. Your other furbabies miss her too, they know you all need to share your grief to begin to heal.
 
((Anne)), I love Muffin's memorial. It's perfect for your sweet girl.
I know what you mean about missing the little things.
I'm glad you're getting extra love from Shnookie, Kibby, and Oscar. They know you need it right now. ♥

Very beautiful memorial for a beautiful girl. I completely agree...the Rainbow Bridge bracelet was a sign from Muffin that she arrived safely, and is waiting there for you. Many hugs and prayers....
 
((((Anne)))) Muffin's Memorial is perfect. Just seeing it every day will help to mend your heart. Muffin is right there, and she sent you a beautiful sign.

Hugs to you and scritches to Schnookie, Kibby, and Oscar,

((((Anne)))) Such a beautiful memorial for sweet Muffin. I love it and I especially love the Rainbow Bridge bracelet. What a considerate girl to send you that sign from the Bridge. I'm happy to hear that you are receiving shnuggies from the other kids. Extra special blessings to you and your family.

What a beautiful tribute. Some people don't understand why we do things like for out pets that have crossed the bridge, but it's such a comfort to have these reminders of the wonderful presence they were in our lives. I could never put my kitties in the cold ground. I want them in my warm house, and I want to be able to take them with me if I move. I pray you'll find peace and comfort, looking at your memorial. I know Izzy appreciates it and is watching you with love from the other side of the bridge.

What a BEAUTIFUL picture!! I know that you will treasure it forever. I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray that you can find peace and comfort. rb_icon
 
What a beautiful memorial for Muffin and the photo is just precious. I'm so glad she's home with you and giving you signs that she is going to forever be in your heart. Extra shnuggles from your other babies will certainly help.. Time will take care of the rest :YMHUG:
 
A beautiful tribute for Muffin, and such a great picture of her. She was such a big part of your life, and I know this pain will be raw for quite some time. It is a testament to your bond and your love. My heart feels for you Anne. I'm glad you have your other furbabies to help comfort you. :YMHUG:
 
The bracelet does feel like a sign to me.
I know what you mean about little things setting you off. I'm not liking getting sympathy cards.
That's a lovely memorial....
Muffin knows she is so loved. :YMHUG:
 
Thank you all for visiting, and for your kind words. It really is comforting to have Muffin home, yet makes it all so final at the same time. I know you all understand, and it's wonderful to be able to come here. I love you guys!
 
What a wonderful memorial. How neat about the sign with the bracelet. Muffin will always be with you. :YMHUG: :YMHUG: :YMHUG: I'm glad the other kitties are helping give you some comfort.
 
Welcome Home Muffin. Your memorial is beautiful, as were you. You watch over your bean, 'K? She misses you very much. We all do.

Take care Anne. What you have done for her is beautiful.
 
((((Anne)))

Muffin's memorial is beautiful and I'm sure it will bring you a lot of comfort. I'm sure that she can see that you paid such beautiful tribute to her and her heart is smiling. It will take time before you can smile, really smile. I still cry for both of my boys but the smiles are more frequent now when I think of how very lucky I was to have had 16 years with them. You'll get there too!

hugs~
