turning 9!!! !!! !!!
Where have the years gone?
He acts just like a puppy, seriously. When people ask how old he is, they cannot believe he's as old as he is. That's a good thing, right?
But he is a deep sleeper now. We can get up and move around and he doesn't wake up to follow, like he used to. He gets anxious in new surroundings now. Unless we are all with him. So going to stay with someone while we go away is no longer an option. It's just too hard on him. And also- he pants for our four hour drives to my parents. These are all things that have started happening over the last year.
These are from last week. My boy.
See his gray chin?? It isn't too bad, eh?? He does have a few gray hairs sprinkled throughout his face. He's aging well for an old timer.
