  1. Dear Sonia, sounds like you're having a Flora Day. I have Jordan and Rufus Days too. They're gone from around us but they're still in our hearts and our heads.

    I hope you're having a wonderful summer. Our sun has finally arrived. Maybe one day, you'll find another dog to enjoy all that beautiful space and more long walks with you :) Big hugs x

  19. Ah... little Flora, what a sweet dog she was. I know you miss her so much. When I had a dog, I loved to go for long walks, but now, if I want to go for a walk in the forest, I borrow Tessa, YoungerSon's dog, and take her out for the afternoon. Tessa doesn't get to go for many long walks at the moment, as they have new twins and a 2-1/2 year old, so life can be quite busy with no time for dog walking!

  23. Oh Sonia, she was a lovely dog and I know you all miss her so much. I miss my dog and have been toying with the idea of getting another one. Just not sure yet.

    I hope you have a very blessed 2012!!

  24. Não dá para esquecer!! Também sinto muita falta do Max, das suas manias... Estou pintando a casa e ontem foi retirado o último vestígio de suas espreguiçadas batendo as patas na parede. Tem certas coisas que só quem teve ou tem bicho de estimação sabe compreender. Olhando as suas fotos, a saudade aperta mais ainda e vejo nos olhinhos da Flora, a mesma bondade e até paciência do Max. Eles estão no céu. Beijus,

  29. Hi Sonia! I am looking again at the photos on your blog of Flora (she looks so much like Katie, in the face!) The rescue organization where I got Katie just started a meeting for people who have lost their beloved pets and miss them so much. I wish something like that had been around when I lost Jessie! Only because I think it would have been nice to talk with others who understood, and who knew what it was like. Some of the people around me, even well meaning friends, just did not understand the depth of my loss. They tried to say reassuring things, but it was usually encouraging me to get another dog and move on. That sort of thing. But it wasn't that easy! Do you have groups like that in Brazil? Do your friends understand?

  30. Hello again Sonia,
    I am very much looking forward to seeing the collage of Flora, just let me know when it's ready or send it directly to that address I sent you. I was thinking that when you send it, I might use that as an opportunity to write something about the deep bond that we form with the pets in our lives, how we inevitably outlive them, and then how we choose to go on and honor their memory.

    A fellow blogger lost her beloved dog companion one week ago Saturday, and this has had me thinking about it lately. I don't want to write about this in a sad way that would bring everybody down, just in a thoughtful way. I can either do it with the Flora collage, or the next post after the Flora one - whichever you prefer. Either way would be fine with me. I almost did a post like that this week, but decided to wait. Have a lovely day and thanks for sharing your thoughts!

  36. Sweet, sweet Flora. They do stay in our hearts forever, don't they?

  37. Dear Sonia...
    Our beloved four legged friends find very quickly a place in our hearts. But when they leave us that place is theirs forever.
    We will not forget them because they loved us unconditionally.
    Take care Gisela.
