<p>Today I spent the morning baking brownies and cookies to take with me for my vet and his staff when I picked up D*O*G's ashes. Called about 2:00 to make sure they were there...yes, so off I went.</p>
<p>When I got there the "crew" was excited about homemade goodies and handed me a small burlap tote bag. Asked them to give Dr. Favaloro a thank you hug for me as he was with a client and they were really busy. Once in my jeep I looked in the bag. There was a white tin with black and gray paw prints on it containing D*O*G's ashes, a card with the Rainbow Bridge poem on it. Inside the card was his official certificate of cremation...he was done on Valentines Day. Only fitting, I suppose, for my beloved heart muscle with four legs. Also in the bag was a bookmark with a lovely poem on it as well as a butterfly "ornament" embedded with wildflower seeds to plant in his memory. How cool is that?!? Much more then I expected.</p>
<p>"We may not be together in the way we used to be.We are still connected by a cord no eye can see. So whenever you need to find me we're never far apart. If you look beyond the horizon and listen with your heart."</p>
<p>So as I drove home expecting to be sooo sad and teary eyed, each time I reached over and touched that little tote bag I couldn't help but smile.</p>
