Gracie
May 7, 2010 - 10:13 am - Sarah and Taylor, I'm so sorry for your loss. I know you guys and Gus will miss her so much. It is so sweet, though, to think of Mamie and Gracie playing together in heaven! I hope you both have a peaceful and relaxing weekend. I'll be thinking of you!
May 7, 2010 - 12:36 pm - I so wish you had a photo from when you first got her...she really was the cutest little thing ever. I think the only one I have is of her and me when she used to lay on my lap and watch tv with me, but I'll have to dig it out of my college photos. I mean, Gracie was in your life even before Taylor...she literally grew up as we did! She'll be missed. Love you.

Gracie and Gus have such a hard life….. Happy Friday! – Sarah Gracie is our little deer! Â Gus gets very nervous jumping up on the bed when Grace is already up there. Â She’s getting a little moody at her old age Ah on the bed at last!
