I think of you every single day. I'm so happy to hear that you have Molliedog to help heal and comfort you. I don't know if I would have made it without my pups. Dogs are a blessing.

Love how Molliedog is resting on her paw....Merry Christmas to you and keep on keeping on:)

Susan said...

Molliedog is lovely!

Merry Christmas to you and your family!

Me and My Dog said...

I love photos of dogs - Mollie is a beauty, and looks very comfortable. Even more so with the blanket.

2011 has been a year of changes for a lot of us, for sure. Some happy, some sad. It will always be the year you'll remember so many things about your Dad - his illness, his bravery and spunk, and how you all gathered around him. My belief is that it was a happy year for him, because now he is living in eternal happiness, something we all hope for in the future. But that doesn't make you miss him any less.

I hope your family will have a very happy 2012, with lots of good things to look forward to. :)

Jenny said...

Take comfort wherever and however you can find it for right now.

Sending peace and prayers your way.

Montana Wildflower said...

Your Mollie looks like our Pig. Pig is no longer with us, but he was my husband's best pal.

Sorry about your dad.
