Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.

There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor.

Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again.

The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together ….

Dog: Mimi – Dallas, GA (10/17/1999 – 07/15/2009)

Mimi, a  Toy Chihuahua, was a spunky old gal who lived life to the fullest. She loved going Bye-Bye and she loved cold slushies on a hot GA Summer day. She was truly loved.

Mimi came into our lives so quickly and before I blinked ….. she was gone. I miss her and I want everyone to know that YES she wore clothes. She loved them. In fact, she loved junk food, as well as a nice warm lap to lay in. She loved to cuddle and snore.

Most of all, Mimi was very loved by all of US! She was our baby and spoiled rotten, and she knew it. So did half my family and friends. She never met a stranger she didn’t like. She was too friendly. She was playful and gentle.

She had her own share of my bed for 9 years and her own side of the couch that she hogged. Most of all, she loved with all her might. She was the best gal I ever had. I loved her for all my life. She will always be my MIMI, my BABY, my BUBBY.

She was loved, oh yes …. very loved. I wish you all knew her. Today I had to give her back to Jesus to go play with her friends at Rainbow Bridge and meet her brother who passed not long ago.

I miss her and my heart is aching to pet her, to kiss her, to call out her name. I know where she’s at, but she won’t hear me. I never knew love was that powerful. Oh, I didn’t know I loved her so.

She was my “sunshine” and today she passed so quickly. Her life was gone and today I’m alone for the first time In 9 years. Oh how lost I am without my side kick. Oh how I wish this was all a very bad dream. But I know tomorrow I’ll awake without her and my heart will ache for her.

I miss you Mimi and will always love you.

May GOD Smile Upon You … Today … Tomorrow and Always

Love, Jess
