dear roxie,

you were the best dog ever.
you ate everything that we dropped on the floor, ran to the front door with your tail wagging every day when i got home from school, slept at the foot of my bed, and made everyone that ever came to our house smile. plus, you were pretty much the cutest thing i ever saw, and you had the same color red hair as i did, and your nose was pink instead of black.

so i hope it didn't hurt when they put you to sleep yesterday,
and i hope you weren't scared,
and i hope you aren't as sad as we are.
the house feels empty without you.

i know you're in heaven chillin' with my great grandma and tupac and heath ledger, so you'll have a good time.
i just miss you so much already.

can't wait to see you in 80+ years (and hoping that my eyes will return to their normal size and color before then),
-c
