Asher

2005 - 2020

My sweetest baby boy ,

Asher, from the moment you entered my life, there was an immediate connection between us. It was clear that you were a special little guy from the beginning: affectionate, loving, intelligent, tenacious, curious, intrepid, devoted, protective, never afraid to let us know what you wanted, resilient, playful, stylish,... the list goes on. How you loved to cuddle up beside me, your arm over mine as I rubbed your belly - secure in the knowledge that you were loved, adored, and treasured. Waking up to that sweet face licking mine all over. That 6th sense you had when one of us was sneaking a pizzelle without you. How you loved to go for a ride in the car, with your sweet little face turned toward the sun. Your love of sweaters, coats and booties when the temperature dropped, eagerly dancing around with your paws up so I could put on your sweater, and then sitting on my lap so I could put on your booties. You loved going over to Mom and Dad’s: sitting beside him while watching tv, patiently waiting for him to share his food with you; your curiosity and need to be around Mom whenever she was cooking or baking, knowing she would give her little sous-chef a taste.

So many memories, my baby boy. But there will never be enough words to tell you how much you mean to me, and how much you were loved. My darling Asher, you were one in a billion. Sleep peacefully, my sweet baby boy.

Forever in my heart.
