We are moving again. This will be the third move for Ben in three years. He seems okay with it. We are moving to a temporary apartment with a swimming pool so I'm sure Ben will enjoy it. I promised him we would soon move to a house with a yard - he was very excited.
Today I was going through a box of stuff and discovered a stuffed sheepdog. Ben told me it looked like Chops and I started crying. He is such a sweet, sensitive little guy. He gave me a hug and asked why I was crying. I told him I missed Chops and he told me she would be coming back soon. I explained to him that she went to heaven and we won't get to see her for a very long time. He told me she is having fun with her "doggy friends" in heaven and is probably sharing a bone with them. I had to laugh at this. One thing Chops didn't do is share. It reminded me of how she would muscle her way into the water bowl when she was in puppy preschool and not let any of the other pups get water. I really miss her but I'm so happy to have Ben here. He has a way of making everything better.
