From Bijou & Mike White---- After 17 years our fur-son Mr. Wiggles passed over the rainbow bridge. I now would like you to meet the newest White Family member. His name is Samuel (Sam) Roy White. He was born September 7th. We weighs 5lbs even those he looks like a lot more. He s a fluff ball for sure. He is a snuggler and lover. He is so sweet. He will look you in the eyes and you just melt. I look forward to 17+ years of happiness with you Sam. Thank you for filling the hole in my heart and helping me be able to smile again. Friends, I hope you will get to meet Sam soon. Love Mike & Bijou and Sam. 6
