Chang Er (Baby)
It's painful, but we will all walk through it together.
I don't know when I will stop crying myself to sleep, but I do know life will never be the same without Chang Er Baby in the house ever again.

Chang Er Baby:
We watched you grow up from a little baby - your delightful expression and perky ears as you 1st dragged your tiny feet across the living room.
I met you 3 times before deciding to bring you home. You were the quietest baby there, and the only baby who recognized me and crawled silently to my side on my 2nd visit. You chose me as your new mummy, and from then onwards, there was never a day I have loved you any lesser, regardless of the fact that I was not home most of the time. You never blamed Mummy, instead, day by day, you're contented with that few hours of time I forked out on weekdays to play with you.
You grew at an amazing rate, you became fat and happy, like a real little baby.
You patiently watched over me during my darkest hours and many heartbreaks; you stayed quietly by my side when I was ill and lying by your cage.
You like to stand on your hind feet and look at us with your big doleful eyes for fresh garden veggies; you also like to squeeze your face against the grills of your cage to make funny faces. You were so cute and endearing - you were the sole source of joy everyday I returned home from a long tedious day at work.
My parents and I never talked much - ever since I brought you home, we began talking. You became a close member of our family and brought all of us closer together.
Thank you my baby.
Baby, Mummy appreciates and loves you more than anyone else in this world.
You did not pre-empt Mummy that Saturday morning that you were passing on. Mummy sensed your lethargy and hugged you tightly, pleading you to be a good girl and eat more to regain your strength to hop. Mummy was not there to see you for the last time; Mummy is sorry.
Mummy will give up anything just to hold you in my arms once more.
Mummy read that there's one side of heaven called Rainbow Bridge, where pretty meadows and fields exist for special animals to run and play under the warm sun. I hope you will be happy and safe there. Mummy will join you one day and bring you back to my side once more.
Till then, please remember that Mummy will always love you, no matter where you are.
And Daddy too.
There will only be one and only Chang Er baby for both of us.
