Abbey, died last month.The day after she died, my 4 year old
daughter Meredith was crying and talking about how much she missed
Abbey. She asked if we could write a letter to God so that wh en
Abbey got to heaven, God would recognize her. I told her that I
thought we could so she dictated these
words:</FONT></SPAN></FONT><FONT face="Arial Unicode MS"

died yesterday and is with you in heaven. I miss her very much. I
am happy that you let me have her as my dog even though she got
sick.<BR><BR>I hope you will play with her. She likes to play with
balls and to swim. I am sending a picture of her so when you see
her. You will know that she is my dog. I really miss
her.<BR><BR>Love, Meredith.<BR></FONT><B><SPAN
style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><BR><FONT size=5>We put the letter in an
envelope with a picture of Abbey and Meredith hand addressed it to
God/Heaven. We put our return address on it. Then Meredith pasted
several stamps on the front of the envelope because she said it
would take lots of stamps to get the letter all the way to heaven.
That afternoon she dropped it into the letter box at the post
office. A few days later, she asked if God had gotten the letter
yet. I told her that I thought He
had.</FONT></SPAN></B><BR><B><SPAN

package wrapped in gold paper on our front porch addressed, "To
Meredith , "in an unfamiliar hand. Meredith opened it. Inside was
a book by Mr. Rogers called, "When a Pet Dies." Taped to the
inside front cover was the letter we had written to God in its
opened envelope. On the opposite page was the picture of A bbey
