A day to remember

Bit of a sad day on Friday apart from the Duke .Heather and Jonathon's dog Zebbi had to be put down.
We have an animal buriel place down the field ..where all the pets have gone.
Huey and Martha were very upset and picked some daffodils. Then we had chocolate cake which makes things a little better.
So sad

I like the burying of pets with the children in full understanding. That’s life or rather death. Like farm children they get to understand the life cycle......it’s very upsetting but lovely to have a proper little coffin. We had a burying place at the farm......two dogs, I cat & of course Henry the sheep.
We actually never told the new people we had a graveyard there.! 😳. Should rectify that perhaps!
Chocolate cake helps anything....a proper wake then!!

Always a sad day for the children . but good to know their pet has had a proper burial -- and the chocolate cake to lighten the mood after ! .

Sorry they had to bury a friend. I agree though that it is good for them to go through. An after treat to complete the day.

It is tough, but as others have said, it helps them understand how things happen in the real world. Chocolate cake sounds a nice way to help soften the day.
