Hi, my name is Tigger and I would like to tell you a story about my mom and dad.

I was adopted when I was just a pup. My mom and dad are very special people. I love them both so much, cause they both are so good to me. My mom is a very special person. I'm not sure but I don't think my mom really wanted me. Dads an old softie and he has told me many time that he fell in love with me when we first saw each other. Mom was somewhat disappointed cause she wanted a cute little dog. But I'm cute also, don't you think. Even  though I was not her favorite thing in the world she took the best care of me that I ever could have had. We used to go for rides in her car and she even took me places with her. My dad told me that there was two reasons he got me. He thought mom could use someone with her during the day when he couldn't be there.  He thought it would help her and keep her from being lonely during the day. I hope I was a good buddy. I sure tried to be. She was so kind to me. I never missed a meal or a doctors appointment ever. Thanks mom.

Now I would like to tell you about the sad part of my life. Several months ago my mom left dad and I and went to live with her son. I sure hope she has a good life there. She deserves all the best things in life. I worry every day about her because of her health problems. Please take care of your self mom. Ill write you a letter as soon as dad can help me do it. I would write it myself, but my spelling is really bad. Here is a picture of my mom. She is a big silly some times. I think this was one of those times.

Well, guess I better tell you a little about my dad. My dad and I have developed a very special love. Dad has learned to talk to me. We have lots of conversations about just about everything. He talks with me because he  knows I understand and would never hurt him. Here is a picture of my dad that thinks of himself as a cowboy. That's ok as long as he doesn't replace me with a horse.

Thought you should see where it all began for mom and dad. They were so devoted to each other. My dad has told me many times how much he loves mom. He has told  me many times that she is the most beautiful person in the world. It all started here like it has for most people. With a promise to love each other for the rest of their lives. My dad knew of all her health problems when he married her. He told me just the other day that those thing had never effected his love for you mom. He took you for better or worse. That's just how dad is. He loved you unconditionally for the years that you have been married. Dad is not a good talker. He sometimes hides his true feelings for fear of being hurt. Maybe dad, you should have told her how much you loved her more often. But then that's my dad. More about him later. This is where it all started.

This is mom and dad when they were happy. They both are a little silly. But never the less, here is a picture of them when they were happy together. They are such great people. Dad told me today that he sure going to miss these times with mom.

My dad is a strange one. He is not a big fan of Christmas cards to anyone. But on this Christmas, he broke down and bought her a card. He told me one night when we were talking that he loved her so much, he just had to show it. Mom was shocked because dad never had given her a card. He wrote something very nice inside he said. Dad told me that she cried when she got it. I guess your not as hard a man as you appear on the outside dad. The card was overdo dad. Should have sent her more cards to let her know how much you loved her.

God bless you mom
