Time To Change One Picture

Deserey was the one who brought it to my attention. "Mom, you need to change Seth's picture on the blog." It took me sometime to figure out what she was talking about, but then she took hold of my mouse, scrolled to the bottom of the computer screen and showed me Seth and Goliath's picture on the side."You need to change that mom," she said. "Yup I do." I quickly replied and I was thinking how nice it is to see Seth with a human companion.

After the brief discussion, Des contentedly went back to her book and I prepared to change Seth and Goliath's picture. Emotion sometimes has a way of sneaking right up on me. As I started to remove the picture all of a sudden my heart started beating a little faster, then I noticed the big lump that had formed in my throat and before I knew it my eyes were starting to sweat and I was getting all weepy.

Do you know how long it's been since Goliath has been gone? A couple of years now. Oh how I miss this dog. He and Seth were always together and over the years they rarely went anywhere without the other one present. As dumb as it sounds, it was like parting with him all over again.

So for Journal purposes.

I'm keeping record.

Here's the old picture that hung on the side.

Granted, Haley looks much better sitting next to Seth's side!!! She's much prettier to look at than Goliath with his drool laden smile. I know she sheds less and I am pretty positive she smells better too. She is such a darling girl and I am so tickled not only to add her to the blog but to add her to the family as well. She's the best thing to come along since sliced bread!

I don't know though. Maybe somewhere here on the blog I'm going to have to keep a picture of the greatest dog we've ever owned.  Just for a while maybe. It's a crazy thing . . .

Change!
