'...I showed Meggie the HIH portrait, then we couldn't believe our eyes as we were trying to put names to each of the horses, when we suddenly saw the "angel" or "ghost horse" in the top left hand corner.  The hairs stood up on my neck as Meggie asked, "I wonder what they call that one?"  My reply, "well of course, that's our wee fellow Billy.  Looks like he just got there in the nick of time"

... as long as I live that horse riding high in the clouds will be our Billy

...We then went onto the artist's web-site and read some of the stories behind her work and couldn't believe our eyes at the comment she made on why she had included that extra horse in the portrait.  She said she had done so because she wanted anyone who had lost a horse to be able to see their own horse's spirit joining the herd.

...I BELIEVE OUR BILLY HAS HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS, HE WAS ALWAYS UP TO MISCHIEF!!!'

Angels
.
Angels are the guardians of hope and wonder, the keepers of magic and dreams.

Angels watch over you wherever you go, keeping each day perfect and promising,
a bright new tomorrow.

The motto of angels is "it's a wonderful life"

Wherever there is love, an angel is flying by.

Angels can help carry the ball,
carry a tune,
carry your weight,
and carry on.

Your guardian angel knows you inside out and loves you just the way you are.


Angels keep the world safe for hummingbirds and butterflies and rainbows in spring.

Angels keep it simple and always travel light

Angels love whispering secrets and whistling in the dark

Whenever you hear music, an angel is speaking to you

Remember to leave space in your relationships so the angels have room to play.

Your guardian angels helps you find a place when you feel there's no place to go

Keep a spare angel in your pocket

Angels carry high-beam lights to help you through the darkest hours

Whenever you feel lonely a special angel drops in for tea

Angels know that
love is the only four-letter word

We are always angel-on-call for a friend


Every time you hear a bell, another angel has earned her wings

Angels are with you every step of the way and help you soar with amazing grace

After all, we are all angels-in-training, all we have to do is spread our wings and fly.


'...I hope this gives you all a warm glowing hug as it is sent with one for each and every one of you.  Thank you for the love and support given to me and Meggie over the past week.

I have had so much comfort from this verse over the years and I hold it dear to my heart.  I hope you do too...'


from Anne & Meggie, in loving remembrance of Billyboy

Angels can not do great tasks

Although they can do small tasks with great love

I Said A Prayer For You Today

.
I said a prayer for you today,
And know God must have heard,
I felt the answer in my heart,
Although He spoke no word!

I didn't ask for wealth or fame,
I knew you wouldn't mind,
I asked Him to send treasures,
Of a far more lasting kind!

I asked that He'd be near you,
At the start of each new day,
To grant you health and blessings,
And friends to share your way!

I asked for happiness for you,
In all things great and small,
But it was for His loving care,
I prayed the most of all!

(A gift to Anne from a friend, March 27 2006)
