My baby turned 5 years old on February 20th 2003, and I can hardly believe it. F-I-V-E. Where does the time go? Where does it go? He was 64lbs one day, 92 the very next. Feels like just yesturday that 6 month old pup walked into our home for the very first time. Ball crazy, crate-escape artist extraordinare and oh so willing to please from the start. His playfulness, sillyness, bouncy-ness, and countless 'ness-es' will keep that picture alive for many many many more years to come.

== Puppers, thank you so much for everything you've done for me in the last 4.5 years. You give so incredibly much and ask for so very little in return. You're there when others are not. You keep me warm when my covers aren't enough. You always come downstairs with me no matter how dark or scary it may be. You do the impossible - make me smile in the morning - everyday, and you're always the happiest to see me. Happy birthday 'Chims', I love you! ==
