I'm three years old today! Lola prepared roast chicken and mama bought cake and ice cream for everyone. I ate A LOT of chicken and got a little ice cream treat too! Everyone was kissing me and greeting me a happy birthday. It was a very special day, after all, how often does one turn three years old.
Mama also bought me this stuffed teddy bear to replace the one we had to throw out because it received too much love from me.


When everyone else went to bed, mommy and I were still downstairs. I was busy grooming my bear when I saw Mama tearing up so I went to her and sniffed her face.
She gave me a tight hug and told me how happy I made her for the past three years. But, as I celebrate my birthday, she is reminded how short a dog's life really is and that makes her really really sad. She said while we may spend a few wonderful years together, life without me is too hard to imagine.
I let her hug me for a very long time until her fears went away. Then, I got my bear gave it to her, stayed beside her and that made her feel better.
