Maddy is 6!
go girl. it’s your birthday. par-tay. it’s your birthday.
my life hasn’t been the same since my sister’s dog had an unplanned litter over Mother’s Day weekend in 2003… i am so thankful for her unconditional love and the adventures we have shared. she’s the best Tonto this Lone Ranger could have asked for.
it was *tough* to narrow them down, but here are 6 of my fave photos over the years…
[the sticks now-a-days are at least 3 times her length: 7wks old]
[snoozing in Tofino: 7 wks old]
[sometimes cats love her back. usually not: 2 yrs old]
[our fave pastime is chasing seagulls at Spanish Banks: 3 yrs old]
[distracting me from studying: 4 yrs old]
[brushing out the winter coat: 5 yrs old]
and here she is after a birthday swim on the farm yesterday evening. i know she’s going to miss this place when we leave in August.

Oh, the licking one is adorable but the seagull chase is by far the best shot. Maybe because it’s the Maddy I remember best.

Jo came home on Mother’s Day weekend six years ago. Thanks for the reminder! Seems like it was only yesterday. And with any luck by Mother’s Day next year there will be another furry friend by my side. Sorry cat.
