Yesterday (Sept 8) was Boo's 2yr Ampuversary!  Really?!  Two years!?  (I keep re-doing the math in my head)!  Sure each day brings it's own set of new worries and concerns, but each day we say a prayer and choose to focus instead on love, hope, and joy! 

AND…in a couple of days Boo's human companions celebrate their 10th Anniversary!  (Yes, if you do that  math, you'll discover that we were married just days after the 9/11 attacks)!  Turns out, in the midst of crisis and tragedy, we've been choosing love, hope, and joy all along! 

Double Anniversaries, Double digits, Quadruple Blessings!  Treats for everyone!

Boo became a Tripawd Warrior Princess on Sept 8, 2009. She crossed over the Rainbow Bridge 2.7 years later on April 29, 2012. Run free Angel Boo!

I can never get that tree icon to work!  Probably because none of Boo's pic are posted anywhere so…they have no url.  I'll try to get my techy hubby on here to post of few!  In the meantime – I have updated Boo's Avatar to a pic taken just a few weeks ago! 

Thanks so much for celebrating with us!

Holy cow! That's amazing and fantastic for all of you! Boo, you are a true tripawd hero! I hope you get something really extra-special, like a dead fish to roll in or maybe a rabbit ! And congratulations to your folks for choosing the good stuff at every turn.

congrats on 2 years Boo!

And hooray for the 10 year anniversary as well!

Focusing on the love is really always the best we can do. Seems like you have that figured out.
all the best.
Jackie, Abby's mom

Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman.
