Bella Bran

On November 19th, I had to say goodbye to a little soul who brought more love into my life in two short months than I ever expected. My sweet Bella… I wasn’t ready. I don’t think I ever could’ve been.

You were just a baby.

Full of curiosity, full of light, full of that innocent joy only a puppy can carry. Every time I walked through the door, you were there.. Tail going crazy, eyes shining, you were the best thing ever…

What hurts the most is knowing I won’t get to see you grow up…

won’t get to watch your personality come out more and more,

won’t get to see you hit a year old,

won’t get to see what kind of beautiful sweet girl you would’ve turned into.. which you were already the sweetest..

And I’ll be honest… I’ve been blaming myself..

I keep thinking about all the moments I should’ve given you more time, more attention, more affection, more love... I’m sorry that I failed you sweet angel.. I wish I realized sooner how short your little stay on this earth would be. I wish I held you longer. I wish I slowed down more. I wish I soaked in every minute. I wish I given you every second of everyday..

But even with all my flaws, you loved me anyway.. And I know in your short life, you felt safe. You felt happy. You felt loved by everyone.. you are and were so loved… Two months.. you became so special to us.. And that gives my heart even the smallest bit of peace.

Bella girl… thank you.

Thank you for the joy you brought into my life.

Thank you for every little paw print, every cuddle, every moment you made me smile without even trying.

Thank you for reminding me what pure love feels like.

I know you’re in heaven running, playing, tail wagging, free from pain.

And I hope you know I’ll never forget you.

Your little life mattered.

Your little heart changed mine.

Rest easy, my sweet girl.

You’ll always have a place in my heart. 🕊️❤️🐾 I can’t wait to see you one day once again ❤️
