Unfortunately, we had to say goodbye to Lucy this evening.
I know you shouldn’t have favourites… but she was mine - please don’t tell the others! 🤫
Lucy was just… Lucy.
Fierce. Opinionated. Stubborn as hell. And full of that unmistakable terrier zest for life. She had a personality that filled a room, and once she had decided on doing something, she was damn well going to do it.
But for all her attitude, she had the biggest heart.
She was loving, loyal and completely devoted to us. She made herself a part of everything.
Our days, our routines, our adventures.
All those little ordinary moments that you don’t realise are so precious until they’re gone.
She made us laugh and worry (especially when she would take herself off for a toddle around the village).
And she gave us so, so much love.
I hope you’ve all enjoyed following Lucy’s adventures over the years, because she certainly had plenty of them. I’m so grateful that we got to share a little bit of her with you all.
Tonight the house feels different. Quieter. It’s going to take some getting used to.
There’s a Lucy-shaped hole in my heart that I know isn’t going to be filled anytime soon.
