I just got home so I didn't get to light my candle at 5:00 as I had planned. The weather is terrible and so are the roads so it took forever to get home so I ran upstairs right away and lit Barney's candle to help light his way to the Bridge, although I know he won't need it. Barney's sweet little face is light enough. I also lit a candle for Lara. It's so difficult to help a fur child to the Bridge but I think we'll all agree that this time it's really special. I thought of nothing else all day and when I got slowed down in traffic I used the time to say a prayer for Barney.

A round of tissues for everyone.....
