Blue - I Miss My Girl

There are some things you never forget. One was when we adopted Blue from Almost Home. I had to leave work on a very rainy day. Picked up my wife and son, who wanted a dog, but I wanted no part of it. We got there and we had to decide between a couple of dogs. The only one I wanted was a lab mix named Blue. She was an older dog, but I fell for her right away.
So we took her home and I went back to work. I got home at 10 pm, walked in and Blue barked at me. I told my wife to get her away from me. The next day she and I took our first of many walks. That was 7 years ago.
On December 1, she became ill, and on December 15 she passed. We miss her so much. I'm still crying. I love that dog.
