Giving Thanks

How quickly does time pass?  One can almost fail to notice as the days begin to get shorter and and extra sweater is needed to abate a chill.  Just last week I checked my calendar for some sort of appointment and noticed that it was almost Max's 4th birthday.  Wait, four?  How can this be?  Suddenly I felt a pang perhaps similar to the one I've seen and heard from my family and friends as their children grow.  Stop growing, I thought.  Please stay this way forever.

On the flip side, it is so nice to have Max at 4 and Bella at almost 2.5.  They have chilled out from puppy craziness to wonderful sidekicks and companions who know the "rules" and usually follow them.  My Braque du Bourbonnais certainly live up to the breed description.

At this time of year a moment of reflection - I'm thankful for the joy that all three of my dogs bring and I feel lucky to have these pups!
