Piglet

My piglet.. Where to start.. ok. So when I was going to have surgery my mom bought me a piglet. He was with me in the hospital and he even got his own ID bracelet. The bracelet said Piglet Middleton. He went throught a lot. One day I came home and my dad had washed him and put him in the freezer.. He was frozen for a while. LOL. And then another day I came home and my dad had tied his arm and opposite foot the fan and he was spinning around. One time also while driving my dad took him and rolled his neck up in the window.. His head would blow in the wind.. He was loved and I took him everywhere. I even took him to school on PJ day. So in may of 2008 i went to NY for the first time and i of course took my piglet. Well in all the rush of the planes, I lost him. He in lost in New York City. I often say my heart was left in New York City. Losing my piglet left a giant whole in my heart and in my life. I was not doing well. I took hope and joy in the bible verse "Be still and know that I am God" in this time. I would say it a lot. So where I would hold piglet I now have a tattoo on my arms. It reminds me every day that he is God and he is in control. A year later, almost the exact day, my sister returned home from India. She asked me if I wanted my gift and I was like "YA!". And she brought out a bag. I opened it and I came to discover a piglet. I began crying like a little baby. No it was not my piglet I had lost. It was a piglet from the orphanage that Catherine and steph had worked at. They walked into the orphanage and saw him sitting on the mantle. She asked if she could take him home and of course they said yes.. So I have my wonderful piglet from a cool little orphanage in India. Of course we washed him well and he is wearing a bee out fit like my old one. I still cherish my old piglet and see my tattoos every day to remember him by but i am so grateful my sister brought this one home.. he gives me something to snuggle with..
