I went back and forth with putting this out there, because this is very difficult for me to share, it makes it all that much more real. But Lilly was woven so much into wishbone studio and such a big part of my life that keeping it quiet doesn’t feel right anymore.
A few Fridays ago, Lilly was attacked by a large dog that got off the leash. Her tiny body fought as hard as it could to stay with us, but a few days later we helped send her off into her final sleep. The whole situation has been so traumatizing and devastating, I didn’t know my heart could break in this many ways.
This is, without a doubt, the hardest goodbye 💔
My dear Lilly, my shadow, my pocket sized companion, my littlest biggest love. 14 years, 4 months, and 15 days with you and it still would never have been enough.
She was the tiniest little bug, with the longest legs that were always so perfectly imperfectly out of sync. She was quirk and elegance all rolled into one. Pure sunshine, and she was all mine.
Thank you to everyone who rallied around me while the drama unfolded, especially while everything else continued moving around me at pace that made me dizzy. It’s meant so much to be surrounded by people who knew Lilly and loved her as much as I did.
Love you forever, my sweet pea🕊️
