| I try to live by this saying and today especially I have a grateful heart. |
Today I received a beautiful drawing of our Cooper that passed a few months ago. Many of you know of Cooper from my blog postings. He was a special sweet boy that we loved even if only for just a short time.
I know many of you know Gee from her blog SimplyMeDesignsByGee and know of her talented artist heart and soul.
Gee's talents are in her drawings especially of animals. Some of her greatest drawings are of horses.
 |
| This is one of her drawings. Gee captures the soulful sad eyes of this horse. Gee did this drawing after seeing this poor horse neglected and sad. I agree with her why anyone would abuse or neglect such a beautiful animal is beyond anything comprehendible. Gee included this one in with her drawing of Cooper. |
 |
| She capture every wonderful feature of Cooper. Terry and I had tears looking at this beautiful drawing of sweet Cooper. Every detail is beautiful. |
 |
| Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Gee for this beautiful drawing you gifted us of Cooper. We miss him so much and we will treasure this beautiful drawing. I will be framing this beautiful picture and hanging it in our new cottage home. I am always so touched at the generous and loving hearts out there in blogland. Cecilia from The B Farm blog sent this beautiful picture she painted of Cooper last year at Christmas. Another beautiful capture of our sweet boy. |
 |
| Thank you sweet and talented ladies for these special portraits of Cooper. I will forever treasure and be grateful for you generous and talented hearts. I am so blessed to know both of you talented women and adore both of you for these gifted treasures from your talented hearts. Thank You xoxo Kris |

Kris, what beautiful memories to have down on paper. Both wonderful artists captured the sweetness of Cooper. I know you will always cherish them and their friendship..xxoJudy
ReplyDeleteOh Kris, how beautiful both of the pictures are of Cooper. I still think of that sweet boy. He knew that you need him at that point in your lives - he gave you such wonderful love, which you gave back. He knew then what wonderful parents you were to him. Some day you will meet again and he will be waiting for you.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful rest of the week.
Hugs,

ReplyDeleteHow beautiful and thoughtful these portraits are! Cooper lives on in hearts and artwork! So sweet! Love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteThose eyes! and the sweet paws! What an incredible gift of time and heart from your friend of your beloved Cooper, our beloved Cooper.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, no more words. I have to get up and pick up my own boys after seeing this post. They turned 13 in June and I want to treasure each moment with them.
Oh love and hug them daily and enjoy every moment. As they say life is sooooo short when you love so deeply. With Cooper his life was short with us but I am at peace that he really truly loved his life with us. He had a hard life until he came to live with us and I know he wanted to go on forever being happy. Darn cancer. Just glad he was never really sick or suffering until the last days before he died. So even with the worse kind of cancer he still lived out what life he had in a good way. Just miss that big lug of love so much. These gifts that capture him will be treasured. There is such loving hearts out there in blogland and I am blessed to know all of you.
DeleteHappy Summer Evening.
Kris
How special. They are both so talented. Copper was so sweet.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! A treasure.
ReplyDeleteOh, that face! Cooper was such a sweet boy!! I know you miss him, but what joy he brought to your lives, if only for a short time.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful gifts from two wonderful women! Love the likenesses they were able to capture with their immense talents.

I love the colors on your decor. Beautiful memories of Cooper!! I just noticed that my brother in law lives in the same area you do. He was just here visiting us in North Dakota. He loves to go fishing with my husband and son. Warm wishes for an awesome Summer!
ReplyDeleteI know you'll treasure both of those sweet reminders of your Cooper. What lovely pieces. Such talent out there in blogland. :)
ReplyDeleteWow, such talented ladies! I shall refrain from ever sending you anything I attempted to paint or draw for fear of frightening you too much!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful gifts from their hearts to yours. Cooper touched a lot of people with his soulful eyes. I'm so glad you and Terry were able to shelter him and love on him in the final months of his life. Both for him, and for you two. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteWell that is such a sweet gift by both of those women! They are both so talented. I know you will treasure those pieces and enjoy displaying them in your new home.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have this drawing of your precious Cooper. I would love to have something like this done for my Gracie. She's almost fourteen and I know I don't have that much longer with her. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHi Jill,
DeleteIf you contact me through and give me your email I can get you in touch with Gee if you would like. I am sure she would do a drawing of your Gracie.
Hugs,
Kris
Hi Kris, what a beautiful drawing of Cooper from talented Gee. She is a doll and did an amazing job. She captured his sweet face beautifully. Love the painting too. Talented Cecilia did an incredible job too. Two special keepsakes of precious Cooper. Wishing you a wonderful rest of the weekend. xo
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet and thoughtful gifts! Losing a pet is so hard, and it is so nice to have something like this. Our daughter did a portrait of our sweet Bailey and I love having it.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness that was such a sweet gift. There truly are some real angels in this world isn't there?
ReplyDeleteThese brought tears to my eyes, too ~
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures that so wonderfully capture Cooper's spirit!
