| BUTTERNUT'S FRECKLES WHISPERS AT NIGHT |
| I'm in the process of trying to write Freckles story, but it's taking me a long time to find the words. In the meantime, we've put a few of our favorite pictures together, as a little rememberance of him. We had a little hand painted wooden statue made, and have his ashes in several nice containers around the house. Some very good friends got together and ordered a stained glass stepping stone as a memorial. It should be here next week, I can't wait, it looks so much like him and I'm hoping it will help bring some closure. |

| Freckles last day. He sure looked like he knew, he wasn't well. He had to be set free. February 2, 2004 |
| My Cockerfriends had this made for us by Rox, of RoxAnn's Glass House It's a stepping stone for his special spot in the yard. 4/24/04: It's here, and it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. |
| Freckles in his 'danner, lounging on top of the hot tub in the screened in porch. |
| He just got a treat and was lickin' his chops |

| These are the flowers we're going to plant next to Freckles Stepping Stone. They're called Black Penny Nemophila. Kinda funny, cause the first part of that name is Nemo, and we have a new puppy, a Bichon that we named Nemo. The second part of that name is Phila, and I was born in Philadelphia PA and we live in the burbs of Phila. |
| If you have your sound on, the song "Someday, we'll be together" is playing. It was the last song Freckles & I heard in the car before we went into the vet office. I found comfort knowing that I truely believe we will be together again... Someday! |
| Freckles had 'rage' and no amount of drugs or training was helping him. He wanted to be a good boy, but he just couldn't control himself at times. He was getting worse every day and he needed to be set free from the deamons. |
| Despite his deamons, he was mommy's little boy and I miss him. He would have been 8 years old this June. |

| Our dear friend Polly painted this picture of our Freckles. Since he's an angel now, he has a lovely golden halo surrounding him. I can't wait to frame this and put it on our wall. Thank you so much Polly. |
