We planted a tree in Luco's memory last week. Malayna had been asking daily when we were going to have Luco's "memorial day." So on a beautiful day last week, Malayna, my mom and I went to the garden center and picked out a white kousa dogwood. We already have another dogwood in the front of the house, so this one will be a nice addition. The new one is in the spot where our very old maple used to be.
Malayna helped us get the spot ready, put one of his tennis balls in with the tree and put some dirt on top. After that, though, she was off - playing with her friends on her new swingset. Jimmy and I each took some of his ashes and sprinkled them at the bottom of the tree. We then took turns filling the hole with dirt.

just the right spot - and how sweet is that tennis ball?!
This is my first visit. What a beautiful post and what a wonderful friend and big brother he must have been. It was just this morning that my husband and I were talking about our Squeaky that meant so much to us. She was our first baby and the most wonderful cat I could imagine. Your blog is lovely. Thank you.
