It’s so hard to believe… it’s practically impossible for me to grasp… but my little Cooper turned TWO this weekend. Two. Years old. I swear I took this picture just five minutes ago:
But now he’s a long, lanky adolescent:
What a grown up!
He still has so much puppy in him, but I can tell he’s starting to mature. At least a little. But he’s still my baby. I mean, just look at this face!
Happy birthday, Cooper!
A final update: I know it’s been weeks since I’ve been in this space. I’ve been struggling, fighting off colds and congestion, dealing with exhaustion, and just the mental fatigue of it all. Stupid cancer. I miss reading and commenting on your blogs and writing about my boys, so I’m going to make a greater effort to come here more often. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for sticking around!

09•10•12 at 4:53 pmOhmywoof! what a CUTE puppy! I just want to kiss his snout. He’s precious. I remember Koly at two, just starting to buckle down and see glimpses of the big dog he would become. Fun times! Happy Birthday Cooper!! (and I hope you feel at least a bit better Maggie – cancer sucks. We’re thinking of you – whether you’re here to post or not.)

Cooper sure has grown up into a handsome dog. Hope you had a great to celebrating his birthday.
