HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY ANNABELLE

When I adopted Annabelle in December 2013 I only had

an approximate age of 18 months.

With some math (skills I am not good at -- among other

things like remembering birthdays, anniversaries,

or other special dates) I deduced August was her birth

month, and since she was adopted on the 3rd, I gave 

her that as her birthdate.

***

Annabelle today is your birthday, it started out with

your pantaloons getting a wash, which isn't 

something you enjoy but I think it made you feel

better -- in the long run!

***

But she has been playing with her snakey

and she had a great breakfast and now

she's airing herself out on the screen in porch.

Which she loves.

***

She's really one of the lucky ones.

Her life before was one where she had two

litters before she was 2 years old and 

she lived outdoors in a very rural county.

So she's lucky.

Now she could not ask for anything.

Including being hand fed each meal

(Because that's how she likes it!)

***

Thank you Annabelle

for finding me.

For helping me overcome so much 

sadness from 2013.

Happy birthday to my sweet sweet girl.
