I am so very, very sorry!
Please try to remember that these puppies felt your love for them, and it made their lives easier. You freely gave them the gift of comfort...

I will keep you in my thoughts as you try and be brave for your kids and the trick&treating...
crying is still all right, though.
Follow their lead; kids are very honest about their feelings and respectful of yours...

Thank you for being the kind of person who gave love and care to these little furry ones...
