A few weeks ago, I was out playing with Gretl in the snow. I broke out "the" infamous mittens to shovel my walk and tossed them off when I needed to take pictures of Gretl being crazy. At one point, she did something super-silly and while I laughed, it made me sad too because she reminded me so much of Grover.
Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. But Gretl has somehow managed to inhabit his spirit. She is SO similar in so many ways (says a lot about nature vs. nurture!) But she's also her own crazy self. They would have loved each other. I wish they could have met.
As the tears welled up, and I went to shake them off, I looked down to grab my mittens, and saw a heart. My boy... saying hello.
Happy Valentine's Day from all of us.
Julia & Gretl... & Grover

Perfect Valentine....
you have been blessed to have 2 fantastic bullies to share your life with!
Vickie, Lily, Nemo, Nora, JR, Harper, Max and Angel Spike!
Awwww...I love those hugs from beyond when they come!!!
(((((((((GROVIE))))))))))))) But we all know Grover sent Gretl to be with you...and I know what you mean about similarities. Bodie reminds me so much of Malcolm sometimes but definitely has a style all his own.
Hugs to you girl and Happy Valentines Day!

Re: Happy Valentine's Day... from Grovie (pic)

Grovie but see all the stories and I bought the book, so I feel I do know him.He is ALWAYS with you and Gretl:)

much bully love~Christine, Dupree, Marley and Savannah
We miss him, too.
I really do think about that adorable face more than you would suspect. Grover had an effect on a lot of us, even if we never met him personally.
I think he did send a heart message to you.
Awww....
That surely is a sign he's watching over you & Gretl.

Smooch Gretl for me, and have fun next week

That totally made me tear up. Your sweet boy will always be watching over you and Gretl.

Happy Valentines Day to our guy in the sky. Gawd, I sure do miss him something awful BUT very glad you have Gretl. And, excited to be able to see her again next weekend after all these months. I can't hold her in one hand like I did when she was 3 weeks old but I'm gonna squish her as tight as I can and kiss her non stop
