Tonight's picture was taken in September of 2006. Mattie went with Peter to Boston to visit his parents. I remained in DC because I was studying for a licensure exam and needed time to myself to concentrate. I remember receiving this photo! Clearly Mattie was having fun with a box that was transformed into a play house. Mattie was totally into boxes and always saw the possibilities!!!
Quote of the day: Life is problems. Living is solving problems. ~ Raymond E. Feist
Sunny and I spend a lot of time together. We walk a good five miles a day, in two mile increments throughout the day. However, there are times during the day when I have to leave him alone and go out. Unfortunately you can't take a dog everywhere you want to go! What I am proud to report is that Sunny is absolutely perfect at home left to his own devices. He doesn't touch anything, damage anything, and has a bladder of steel!!! He is such a wonderful addition, and fits right in.
Last night was his first night sleeping in a dog bed, not in his crate. He did great. Despite being very awake at 6:30am! But he clearly did not like the crate and to us it seems like he must have spent a lot of time prior to coming to us in a cage. So we really are opting for a cage free environment for him, especially since he is such a good boy!

Vicki,
I love closing out my day, looking at a Mattie smile. His smile lights up the page. I am glad you see and always have, the value of photos. I know when you took many of these pictures, you thought you had a lifetime of celebrating Mattie with the pictures, you took. I am sorry, you have but a few years.
Your quote tonight is so true. Some problems in life become to hard to solve. Then we work harder to find solutions, that may or may not work! But we never stop trying to be the difference.
I just felt sure that Sunny. & Indie would be friends❤️
