Little Girl’s Broken Heart

Sarah suffered a personal loss today. Her hamster, Angel, a sweet little 4 month old baby girl died today. She just covered herself in the wood shavings and went to sleep. It’s been a hard day for my not-so little one.

My heart broke for her, remembering the first pet I ever lost. My dog, Tammy, an apricot poodle went off and died. We never found her, though we searched and searched. My dad told me years later that he found her body and “took care of her” for me.

Do you remember the pain of the first time your pet died? I think we actually never forget it.

Poor Sarah. Welcome to life, my love.
