When our baby took to the boob for the first time: happy tears at him having his first feed, but also sad at the thought of how many more boobs he’ll seek out before he’s truly happy.

Orlando Bloom English actor
I lost my poodle, Mighty. He was out of my sight for just seven minutes; he went out on an adventure and didn’t come back, and was taken by a coyote, I think. It was awful, really painful; he taught me about love and loyalty, and how the connection between living beings can be.
