Casey came into our home curled up in a blanket on my chest, and that remained his absolute favorite place to be for nearly eleven years. He may have been smaller than his big brother but Toby knew who was boss. Our children knew it too and they adored him just as much, whether they were secretly sharing snacks with him or quietly carrying him off to bed to sleep by their side.
Though we know the goodbye is always inevitable, we were completely unready for it to come so soon. Yet, there is a comfort in knowing that his journey ended right where it began – resting safely in the warmth of my arms.
“We have loved you your whole life, and we will miss you for the rest of ours.”
