Day 16: Something that you miss

I can write about a lot of things, I miss singing in the choir. I miss my grandma although I never knew her. But I miss my dog.

Her name was Vlooi, with is Afrikaans for flea. Yes I know, it's a strange name. But she was very small so the name fit her, a small little flea :)

She died on the 26th of December exactly three days after my birthday. I'm just so grateful she didn't die on my birthday.

We don't really know what was wrong, but I had her for four years and I could only be grateful for every minute I had with her.

That was her as a baby.

I still cry about her, hell I cried last night. I know people with say it's just a dog, but it's not just a dog.

She's your best friend.

That's how small she was, but she's still a baby here.

That's my favourite photo of her.

That's the last ever photo I took of her. Gosh, the tears are falling as I write this.

But that's how I imagine her now, her eyes closed, peaceful and it even looks like she's kinda smiling

So yeah, see you tomorrow
