I Hope

"We're moving! I can't believe it. I've lived here all my life. It's going to be so different. I've always wanted to move out of this small town. Even if we are downsizing, I'm very excited about this move! I wonder what are new house is going to be like. I wonder if I will get my own bedroom. I wonder how big the kitchen will be." I was so excited about moving, until I found out.

I never will feel the same again, not without my pets. I've had my dog for as long as I can remember! He was my best friend. Also my rabbit, we can't bring her either. What will I do? Will I go crazy? Or will I soon forget? Will I get over it? I'm not quite sure yet, we move in a couple weeks. Only then will I find out.

I wish it didn't have to be this way, I love my dog so much. But don't leave out my rabbit, shes the best anyone could ever have. I hope the new owners take well care of them. I hope the pets love their new home. I've already found a home for my dog, but what about the rabbit. I don't know what to do with her, I am looking for a new home. I hope my pets like there new life better than this one, and I wish the same for myself. I know it will be hard, but it's what has to be done. There is no other option, this is what downsizing is. I don't want to move, but we don't have a choice. I dread the day I say goodbye to my pets. It is not going to be easy. But hey, who said anything about easy. We go through hard times in life, and we go through good times in life. I guess this is one of the "Hard Times" I am going through.

I would do anything to keep them. This is the hardest thing to do. When I wake up and see no dog, I'll cry. I'll cry and I'll cry and I'll cry. Then when I'm done I think I'll cry some more. I don't think I will ever get over this, but I sure hope I do. I think I'll always be sad. I think I'll always cry. I'll cry myself to sleep at night. I'll cry the moment I wake up. I'll cry when I eat my breakfast. I'll cry when I write the next article. I'll always cry.

I hope, with all my heart, that I will get over it soon. I hope I will be too busy focusing on making new friends, I hope I won't even be thinking of my pets. I hope I can smile again. The chances of that are slim, but I still hope. I hope and I hope and I hope. I hope that they will have a better life in their new home. I hope that their new owners take care of them. I hope that they make new friends were they are going. I hope that they still think of me. I hope that they take the move well. I hope that they fit right in. I hope... just hope...
