Happy 9th Birthday, Bentley Basset Hound

We are celebrating Bentley’s 9^th birthday!!

If you have never read how he came to live with us, please take a minute to check out Bentley’s Story. It explains a lot.

An Interview with a Basset Hound About Being Older

   Bentley is going to celebrate his 9^th birthday this Saturday, December 3^rd. It doesn’t seem possible that it has been nine years since he was a wiggly long-eared wrinkly puppy. Then again, I can hardly remember life before he was in it. He has changed me in ways that I never dreamed possible. I will discuss that tomorrow.

   You might remember on my birthday a couple of years ago when he was gracious enough to interview me. I decided it was time to ask him a few probing questions.

Me: “Bentley, thank you for agreeing to this interview. I know that you are a busy Basset.”

Bentley: “Never too busy for you, Mom. Are those the treats you promised?”

I nod and slide him a piece of jerky.

Thanks Blogville

   As I reflect on all of the things that I am thankful for this year, my friends of Blogville are some of the ones that fill my heart. If you had told me five years ago that some of my very best friends would be people that I had never met face-to-face, I’d have said, “No way!” Yet here we are in 2016 and my friends in Blogville are the ones that I can count on to pick me up when I’m feeling down and make me laugh when I need desperately a giggle.

Thanks and Giving

May your lives be filled

with

 thanks and giving.
