Happy Trails Stewart Little    "Our Miracle"
Our Story of Stewart Little
I raised Stewart on a heating pad in a little box in our bedroom.  He has a fleece lined house
shoe for a companion and at some point, he managed to crawl over and start sleeping in
the house shoe.  He was three days old when it was obvious that he could not nurse from
his mom, Sparkles.  She tried her hardest to get him to nurse and take care of him but
could not get it done.  As Sparkles became weaker and weaker, I put the other puppies on
Sparkles' full sister Jessee, who had one puppy, and Jessee raised 5 of Sparkles puppies.  
It was left to me to try to raise "Stewart Little." It was touch and go for the little guy but he
never quit trying so I did not give up on him.  I am proud to say that Stewart is now a happy
healthy 10 inch  tall and 8 lbs member of our family and will forever have a special place in
our hearts and lives.
Thank you to my wonderful daughter Leanne for writing this great poem for myself and my granddaughter Faith.
