Death of a Guinea Pig. We had to put my 8 year old's pet guinea pig, Sugar, to sleep tonight. It was so sad being with my little sweetheart as she held her for the last time. Dad was bawling as he carried his big little girl out of the vet's office. I'll never forget how 'Sweets of the World', that's my nickname for her, could imitate Sugar's little squeak so perfectly. Then there's the time my daughter had to go to her room for being mean to her sister on the bus...She went into her room and started hollering "Sugar's having babies!!". Sure enough Sugar had been hanging with the wrong crowd prior to our adoption of her. And there she was, barely a grownup guinea pig, with that same look in her eyes she always had that said, "Now what are we going to do?"

Once again I was amazed by the compassion and caring that my other 3 children were able to muster on her behalf. Although it was sad there was that special situation of having each other to lean on. It makes me feel so good that I can't even describe it. Knowing that no matter what happens we all have each other and we always will is the greatest feeling in life..like there's nothing we can't overcome as long as we're together.

I feel like the luckiest guy in the world...AGAIN
