Tonight's picture was taken in December of 2002. It was Mattie's first experience with SNOW! We had snow the first week of December that year. I opened our front door and Mattie used his 'tot wheels' to mobilize into action to check out the white stuff. As you can see, he proceeded with caution and wanted to make sure I was right behind him. There were many firsts for Mattie within our home in the city and I remember each and every moment.

The Credit Union is located in a stunning building and everyone working there, seems happy to be there. So unusual in today's day in age. We had a lovely chat with Tim and his staff and took several photos.
After our trip to the bank, I drove to Mattie's school because I did not want Christmas to pass without decorating his tree. It is a tradition, and traditions to me are important.
I wish I could say that this is where my day ended! Sunny had his monthly oncology appointment today. Unfortunately I learned that the chemo he is on isn't working. Sunny has also been bleeding from his anus. I was aware of this, but frankly I think I was in denial and told myself that it was a hemorrhoid from all his diarrhea. But the sore on his back end is not a hemorrhoid, but an external tumor. In any case, the vet feels that Sunny is in pain. So as of tonight, Sunny is now on pain meds. We are going to try another chemo starting tomorrow, but the vet is preparing me to make some difficult decisions in the New Year. When I tell you that I can't handle one more issue or loss, I am NOT kidding. There is just so much one individual can bear!
