wonderful, tearful gift

My husband and I received a belated x-mas gift today. It had sat at my mothers house for a while, and we were only able to get it picked up this afternoon. The gift was from a lady named Jann, who rescued and fostered both our sweet sheepie girl, Abby, and our beloved boy Spencer, gone since August. Jann had Spence for several years before placing him with us, and had even finished him in his championship.

She had put together a beautiful memory book of Spencer's life and show career, with pages and pages of photos, poems, and thoughts.

I haven't quite made it all the way through the book yet, as the frequent pauses to cry are making it slow going.

just had to share this. :cry: :hearts:

What a wonderful gift! Hopefully the tears will be fewer and the laughter more as time goes on but the gift will keep on giving.
Oh, that is wonderful!
What an incredible gift. It is lovely that they made it and really touching that they shared it. It is wonderful that your dear Spencer was so beloved.
