annie... I am late to see this but wanted to add my condolences... it's never easy to lose a pet... but you gave her the greatest gift of all by doing what was right for her not for you...
I lost my Gabi to cancer at age 7... I buried her with a letter from me, a pic f me and the dogs, her bowl and her favorite toy...
I placed a miniature rose above her and a metal kitty sculpture marks her resting place... she is buried below the front window where she loved to sit and watch the birds...
I know you will find much peace knowing your baby is nearby too...
here's Gabi's garden...
There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".
