It's hard to get him to sit still long enough for a cute picture these days.

I almost missed this. If it hadn't been for Patrick wanting to play outside, I would have never seen the daffodils blooming. The wind was blowing so hard I couldn't get a good shot.

I acknowledge that I have been negligent about posting pictures lately. Hopefully things will settle down soon and I will get back on track. In the meantime, hope you enjoy this texting exchange between Donald and me today. I certainly laughed.

They're here! And I had the bright idea to serve lasagna, which Patrick loved.

Ahhhhh.....life in North Carolina. Mid 20s and snow to 70 in the same week.

Patrick got his first hair cut today. Just like that, he looks like all grown up. According to the report from his dad, he cried like crazy, but never moved. Big thanks to Jon for sending me pictures.

I think it has been a while since I have given an update on Thug. If you remember, back in October we almost lost him. He got to where he could hardly walk, and even standing was hard. When I took him to the vet, they did x rays and determined he has some neurological damage in his spine. They started him on prednisone, and he has done remarkably well! We're at the point now where he takes a pill every other day, and he can still function quite well. He's even looking for and bringing me toys to play. But the best news of all, last night he wagged his tail. I didn't think I would ever see him do that again.
