I am home for lunch today. My daughter heads back to college tomorrow and my son starts next week. I am hovering just a bit, soaking up what I can from these two young people I love so much.
I was looking for some pictures I have stored on a remote hard drive to show the kids...early photos, sentimental stuff. Thumbing through the pics I found a picture of my old Lab Earl with Cassie, our Red Heeler.
The photo was taken in December, 2006 and Earl passed the next summer, 2007. My heart still skips a beat when I think of Earl. The picture, frankly, floored me. He was 13 in the photo.
Cassie is raising the new young man, Rika.
