What a cute, sweet story.  Thank you for sharing.  I just know Freddie is happily chasing mice at the Bridge, as he waits for the day when you two are reunited.   Big hugs to you.......     =^..^= Terri, Salome', Siggie the Tomato Vampire, and 5 furangels: RuthieGirl, Samantha, Arielle, Gareth, and Alec =^..^=   Visit my personal website!  Click this link (or copy and paste into your browser): http://pages.ivillage.com/ruthiegirl1/MyFeLVinformationSite/   AVON -- Not just cosmetics!  Send me a note or visit my eRepresentative website http://www.youravon.com/theresabrown for more information!
