Tonight's picture was taken in November of 2002. Mattie was 7 months old. He loved looking at books, seeing the pictures, and hearing me tell him stories. As I always say, Mattie was born ON! He always wanted to engage with the world and take everything in.
Quote of the day: Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~ Melody Beattie
Peter's parents are coming into town for Thanksgiving tomorrow. I set up Mattie's room and look who seems to have claimed the aero mattress! Got to love Sunny!
Peter and I spent the day doing chores and later in the afternoon, we treated Sunny to a walk on Roosevelt Island. Typically Sunny doesn't walk out on this log. It was a first today! Peter and Mattie always did this together. But when Peter led Sunny out on the log, like Mattie, Sunny was eager to explore new territory!
In the midst of our walk, I can't tell you how many people stopped us. They wanted to pet Sunny and wanted to know what kind of pooch he was! Sunny gets a lot of attention where ever he goes. A whole family with children even came up to Sunny and pet him all over, and he just stood still and was very patient!
