A Really Sad Day
Last night Kaitlin and Parker moved back to BYU. This morning I got up and left for Salt Lake to tend Lara's boys while they are at Lake Powell. I left just after Tristan had gone to work. He called me this afternoon and told me that when he went home he found that Murphy had died. He was lying on the carpet in the garage where he usually takes a nap. He was all alone at home by himself. We are so sad. Tristan is having a really hard time as he is the only one home to take care of him. What a faithful, loving companion he has been to us for just short of fifteen years. We really feel the loss. When I get home, I'll have to post some pictures of him. It is a hard, sad and emotional day.
