R.I.P. - Winston

Today I am observing a day of blog silence in honor of my sweet little man, Winston.  During the very early hours of the morning on this day, Thursday, June 3rd, 2010, my sweet Winnie boy passed away.  For those of you that read my blog often, you know how much I love my fuzzy kids.  Winston joined our family in 2001 at the age of 8.  He lived a full life, though not nearly long enough by my standards, and could bring a smile to the face of anyone he met.  His favorite toy...a stuffed purple dinosaur, one of the first he finally learned not to tear apart but to play with.  His favorite past time...running around like a crazy dog with his big sis Brittney, you'd have never guessed his age when they were at play.  His passing has created a pain in my heart I've yet to feel as the tears fall in an endless stream, but his memory will not fade and his presence will remain in my heart always.

I would like to ask each of you reading this today two things.  One....if you have a little fuzzy one, give them a great big hug and a treat while you're at it.  Second....if you have a moment in your day to simply click on a button and make a free donation to help animals in need, I've listed two great organizations below that offer just that.  There's no catch....it's just a way to give back to the community and help those little ones still seeking a forever home.  My Winston came to us from a local shelter and the joy and love he brought to our lives was limitless.
