The Lord blesses us with animals to brighten our lives...
Sometimes for a long time and sometime for a little while. 
Cheese came into our lives about 3 years ago. Made himself to home here and we loved him dearly. November 12, 2002 we had to let him go because someone shot him and he was paralyzed half way down.

We thank the Lord for the time we had with him. Cheese got his name because he wined alot and Matthew said he needed "some cheese to go with his wine." He will be missed. He was a great cat.

If I could be with
you right now

If I could be with you right now 
There's so much I'd say, 
To let you know you're dearly missed 
More so  each passing day.
I'd bake you a cake 
With a heart full of love, 
Then I'd stir in a hug or two. 
I'd add a cup full of kisses Especially, for you. 
I'd sift in a lifetime of happiness 
For all the things you do,
And frost it with my loving prayer 
Then hand my love to you.

The above poem I found after we lost our cat Shadow. It was on a book mark with a black cat looking out a window. Shadow was black...
Thanks to all of you who prayed for us as we went through this time.
