Happy New Year! I hope 2010 is going well for you.

January 18th will be Spike's 7th Birthday!! He is doing well. He didn't appreciate boarding over Christmas. He lost his bark. It has been almost three weeks and have recently seen small steps to him regaining his bark. My poor little angel.

It was tough this past week. January 13th came and went and this day is very special since it is Dad's birthday. We all miss him so much. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of him. He was definitely missed at Christmas. We started a new tradition of lighting a candle and telling stories. I was not able to participate this year, but hopefully next year.
