Having To Say Goodbye

wednesday. march 11. 2009, it was a cloudy and breezy day in northern alabama with temperatures a bit cooler than it had been in the past few days. clay came home from school to find his pregnant wife STILL in the bed at 1:00pm. i rolled out of bed, threw on some old clothes and we headed outside to finish our goodbyes with a good friend. this friend has been with us for the last 3 years. i think we've been great parents to Ole' Blackie, we have provided her with a roof over her head, fed her, given her a bath, and even taken her to the doctor when she needed it. but the time had come for us to say goodbye. i knew this was going to be hard for clay. these two had been such great friends over the last 3 years and he loved Ole' Blackie a lot. but we knew this day would come when we got her.






this is clay giving her a bath before we had to turn her in:)

this is Ole' Blackie all cleaned up. bless her heart she has no idea what is about to happen. she has no clue that her parents are about to have to turn her back in:)

Blackie you have been a reliable friend and we shared many memories with you that we will never forget. but your lease has run out and daddy and mommy must give you back. just know that we will miss you very much!!
