Dear Lotus. 
During our year-long stay more than 12 years ago, you and your brother found your way into our hearts as tiny puppies. Life held more laughter, more joy, and more love because you were part of it.
You arrived with an attitude, a bright, fiery spark, and a fierce love and devotion to your human family (of 5).
You were a beautiful soul, merely disguised in a dog’s body.
Your spirit, your sweet “I wuv yous,” the familiar click of your paws across the floor, your little “hello waves” at the top of the stairs, your fixation of pillows to rest your head on and the unconditional love you shared will be missed beyond words.
The love we shared is never lost as it lives on in our hearts, always and forever.
Thank you for the gift of being you.
