Yesterday was difficult due to a terrible accident around noon. The kids' father bought a kitten about a week ago so they would have something to love and care for. The kitten was ill when they brought it home, but they were caring for it and nursing it back to health.
The kitten was tucked into one of the beds sleeping softly. Someone did not see it and did not know it was there, so he lay down on the bed for a nap and the sweet baby kitten was crushed. The lifeless body was discovered. All efforts to recover its fragile life failed. Mourning engulfed the family, and guilt +criticism engulfed the luckless individual who had been the cause of ending the kitten's life.
How quickly loving memories and hopes build around the small and helpless creatures of this world. Would we ever want to be without them? When they are taken from us, all the hopes and dreams built up around them come crashing to the ground. Rest in peace little one. We will miss you and the hopes you meant to us.
