Happy Birthday to Stella

It's another less than happy day for me, Stella.







I'm flying south today
to honor the passing
of my dearest Aunt Jo.



I've never enjoyed airplanes
and even less so these days...


but I will be thinking of you
and her and
wishing you
peace and rest.


You would have been 15 years old today.













I will miss and think of you both

every day of my life.

Maggie, Murphy, Val & Tootsie - R.I.P. my friends

Hurry Up, Sweet Tootsie!

The years rushed by for you, Toots

one minute you showed up

with your little leg in a cast

and quickly became part of the family

the next

you two were turning gray...







you were even quick enough


to become fast friends

with Sasha

Dogspeed, sweet girl







I know you and Stella










will be together...
