Old Lady

It is hard to believe

our baby girl

will soon be 8 years old.

She was our first.

And for many years

our only.

She has had many changes in her life.

And adjusted well to them all.

She does get a little grumpy

with being tackled

by a two year old.

Who can blame her?

A few days ago big guy

gave her a huge bear hug,

tackling her to the floor.

To which she replied with a grunt and growl.

(her usual response to him, unless food is involved.)

I told him~

"Trent, please be careful, Gracie is an old lady!"

Later that night

big guy ran and tackled me,

in the process choking me and pulling at my hair.

I told him~

"Trent, please be careful!"

And his reply~

"Mommy old lady!"

Ahem.....

Anyway....

I thought we should do something nice for

our girl.

Because she often does get overlooked these days.

So we cooked up a batch of yummy doggie cookies.

It was like she knew they were for her.

And she did a great job at helping

to clean!

Big guy loved the fact that he was

making something special for Gracie.

He really loves her.

And she LOVED her cookies!

We even had enough left to

share with our doggie friend, Tank!

We love our Gracie girl!

love, the rockinryans
