Laying here cuddling with Romeo tonight. I really don't want to let him go. I just keep thinking about all the times we have shared. My first days of middle school and not being able to wait til I got home to see him. Spending my summers in Florida with his siblings missing him terribly while he was 1000 miles away from me. Him sleeping in my water bed with me and me waking up to a leak in the bed thinking he had peed in it. Moving to florida and him being my room mate when I lived alone for the first time in my life. Driving from Florida to California with him on jays lap for all 3000 miles. Moving into the apartment in Ventura and taking him to the beach for the first time, which he hated. Us learning that potatoes of any kind are not a good thing to feed him. While moving to Arizona and him laying on the passenger Seat keeping me company for the long drive alone. The first time that he ever listened to Garth Brooks' scarecrow album and howling along with the harmonica. All the times we cuddled up to one another in bed or on the couch under the covers.
He has managed to be there through everything for me. I can't remember a time in the last 15 years where something happened and I didn't have him right there by my side to help put a smile on my face. Letting him go it going to probably be the hardest thing I have ever done. For him it's time, he's ready, I just don't know that I am. I want to hold onto him for just one more day, just one more night with him at my feet under the covers. Boy am I going to miss him. And life for the next few weeks will be hell. I love you Romeo, Monkey butt, and all the other wacky names we have all come to know you as over the years. I love you more then I could ever love someone else.
