This encore post is from Jan. 28, 2014...which means today is Smooch's 11th birthday.
Stop the world. I want to get off.

Smooch turns 8 years old today.
She seems ageless to me, behaving and looking the same today as she did when she was 2,
although she does seem much wiser.

Me: Smooch, it's your birthday!
Smooch: Say it isn't so. I don't want to get old.
Smooch: F*ck birthdays.
Happy Birthday Beautiful Smooch!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, dear Smooch! You wear your age well! 11 years sounds pretty good to me; my beloved Ginger will turn 16 in a couple of months. Yikes!

Birthday smooches for your precious Smooch. She's amazing...
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday sweetie
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful girl. Happy Birthday, Smooch!
ReplyDeleteMy sentiments exactly! Your mom will make it extra special, I'm sure. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteAmen to that final sentiment. Became a senior citizen last week and it was fairly depressing lol.
ReplyDeleteAbout birthdays, I agree with Smooch's sentiments. My last year in my 60s starts in 2 weeks, holy moley! My Siberian Husky pal Charlie is 13 -- I'd love to have her be 11 again. Smooch is in such good shape, I bet she'll be your watch-dog for many years yet.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Smooch your a wise old girl these days. stay warm!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Happy Birthday to you Smooch! You're beautiful and you have a great attitude!
