I understand... me and my ex boyfriend had similar little friends too. Their innocent faces always made everything ok again after a fight. still till this day, I can't look at them, but when I do, it brings back all the bittersweet memories. Sometimes, we need to remember what was there to move on.

I absolutely adore this story. I wish it did have a happier ending. I agree with Natalie, bad voo-doo vibes to whoever stole your little friends. Thank you for sharing your story.

I hope whoever took your little friends has had to deal with some bad karma. This story hurt my heart. The smallest things can mean so much. If this was a novel I was reading, I would be rooting for you guys to get back together. Sorry for your loss; thanks for the story.
