Marselle the Mailman
Every pet owner has nightmares of the day that their beloved pet(s) passes away. Last month that day came to my family and we lost our dog, Marselle. He wasn't ill or seemed any different from any other day. He was taken from us, out of the blue. As sad as it was being with him while he past, I'm glad that I was able to be with him and say good bye. Marselle was my best friend, he knew all my secrets and always new how to put a smile on my face.
The lost of a believed pet isn't easy for anyone, whether you have to put them down because of an accident or illness, or losing them randomly. Its all very hard to deal with.
While I was saying my good byes to my dog, crying my eyes out and wondering how thing could possibly happen. A friend was trying to comfort me, in saying that she was told that when a pet dies and goes to heaven they are giving a job, like a nurse or mailman. I smiled as I imagined Marselle wearing a blue hat and delivering mail. He was one of the friendliest dog, he would make an amazing mail carrier!
I miss Marselle so much, he will always have a spot in my heart. I think about him everyday, and I know that he is watching over everyone in my family!
Posted below is the Rainbow bridge poem, Its a great poem and can mean alot to someone who lost a pet.
~~~~~The 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....
Rest in Peace Marselle

I hope everyone is off to a great first day of spring!! We are actually having some good weather here in Mittenland (Michigan). Its nice to wake up for practice and not half to wear undergear! Shorts and T-shirt weather finally. Over the St. Pat weekend, there was alot going on on campus! Friday was the Spring concert! Jake Owen, Josh Gracin, and Natalie Stovall, the concert was amazing. I stood front row and gave high fives to both Josh Gracin (Whom I love), and Jake Owen. I want to give thanks to the staff members who were kind and got water, because it was soo hot in the gym!
On Saturday it was St. Patrick's day which is one of my favorite holidays, not only cause of the drinking aspects, but because green is my favorite color. We had a game in the afternoon! We Won !!!!!!! <-- Game info. Didn't do much celebrating on St. Pats. Just went out to the Pizza House in Ann Arbor with a teammate and her mom and had a margarita!
due to spring, I really wanted to get a jump start on my gardening. I went out shopping with a friend and we planted a bunch of seeds. The seeds included chives, dill, okra, basil, cilantro, oregano, kohlrabi, jalapenos, peppers, and catnip. I can not wait for everything to start growing. I will be starting my own garden at home but i am also going to be working on mother days gifts.
Well I shall wrap up this post, got to get some school work done! Here are some of my current countdowns!
~~40 days till graduation (including weekends)
~~~~29 days of school left!!! (no weekends)
~~~~~14 Lacrosse games (counting MWLC tournament but not the national tourney)
~~~~~~123 days till country tunder

| Yes I am aware that you really can not tell what the picture is of. This picture is more to use as a reference of how close i was with the stage. ( and it is Natalie Stovall) |
