Stay Gold, Presley! 💔

The past week has been really hard. We lost our best friend, family member and favorite little guy today. It is the most heartbreaking, painful, gut wrenching empty feeling.

Presley, I can’t begin to put into words what you have meant to me these past 14years. From collage kids to living our dream of becoming business owners. Four apartments to our own house. That we made sure had a fenced in yard just for you. You have been with us every single minute. To imagine life without you is completely unfathomable. I remember all 2lbs of you when we brought you home. They told us to let you sleep in your crate. You had other ideas and slept across my neck for a good month and haven’t left our bed since. 

The friendliest little guy that would make anyone who met you fall completely in love. I will miss your kisses, your snuggles, your pitter patters around the house, your polite huffing every time you wanted a bite of pizza crust. Your love for eating corn of the cobb. Our walks though the garden together and your walks around neighborhood with papa, you always led the way. Trips to see the ocean and BBQs at grandmas. 

I am devastated we didn’t get to spend another Thanksgiving and Christmas with you. I know they were your favorite. We love you and it hurts so much. The hole you are leaving in our lives is so great. I know Bella & Luna will be waiting for you on the other side. Till we meet in the stars one day.  

To our favorite little guy Stay Gold💔

Nature’s first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf’s a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay.
