Easter always makes me a bit sad. Not the holiday itself, but it reminds me of my dog Shadow who passed away a few years ago. He was my best friend and everything to me. The reason I always think about him around this time is because my favorite photo of him was taken around this time. He's dressed up with bunny ears, with his little easter basket and spring themed dolls surrounding him. And he has the cutest smile on his face. The fact that we actually got him to pose for it and keep the ears on makes it realy special to me (the same was not true for the santa hat and reindeer antlers, lol). It reminds of me what a good boy he was. I look at it quite often to remember the memories and it feels nice (yet sad), but something about tomorrow being Easter is making me tear up. I miss him so much and would give the world just to give him one last hug and tell him how much I love him. Just one more moment. I know it's weird to say that Easter makes me sad, but it really does remind me of losing him. Even though it's been 3 years now, I still think about him all the time. But I guess even if it it hurts, I'm glad that I had all the good memories and feelings that caused this slight pain.
