The hardest thing for me to leave behind...

is this...

Annabelle.


She has been a constant companion, a sweet friend, for over four years. She's just about the most affectionate animal you'll ever meet, so I'll be missing her presence dearly. I'm very happy and extremely grateful that both my parents and Matt's parents will take turns watching her while we're away. Annabelle looooves being with them! She's in great hands and will be very happy, I am sure. However, no cuddles from Annabelle for eight months seems very sad, indeed. {sigh}
