Saying goodbye to Duck

Saturday was a sad day. We said goodbye to Duckie before we sent her on her way to the happy hunting grounds to meet Momo and Rudy. She was 16 and I had her for 11 years. I don't remember what it is like not to be woken up by her at 4 in the morning for food everyday. Now when I get up at that hour out of habit I still think I see her in the shadows.

rest well, little friend.
