A Year in Pictures

April 3, 2012 | Filed under: Pictures and tagged with: gotcha day, Larry

Monday was Larry’s Gotcha Day. It’s not something we usually celebrate here, as a Gotcha Day means that not too long before, there was a “Lost Ya” day, the anniversary of a beloved pet’s death. Perhaps I’m trying to celebrate Larry too much, as Smokey, who we lost last March, was my heart dog.

Still, it seems like Larry has been part of our lives for so much longer than a year. And today, I share a month by month retrospective my my little punk terrier.

    This was a wonderful photo retrospective. How can you ever celebrate a life "too much"? I hope that over time, you'll be able to separate the loss from the new life, though I don't imagine the pain will ever completely go away.

      I will always miss my Smokey angel, but I am very glad that we have our little Larry. He has definitely put his own stamp on our hearts.

    I love the idea of a year in pictures. Larry is such a cute little punk! The way June is resting her head on him in the May picture is adorable.

      Thank you. He is definitely adorable, and I love that he and June cuddle together.

    Aww, Happy Gotcha' Day, Larry! What a sweet retrospective. Those ears are to die for!

      Don't you just love his ears! Apparently, there are entire web pages devoted to fox terriers with the one floppy ear. And I'm not surprised. It's so cute.

    'Gotcha Days' are amazing. : ) And you are right, there usually is a 'loss' day somewhere before that. I think the ones we have lost are still around. I know I often see Miss Maggie's quirks and perks in Miss Stella. We miss our Maggie Mae but are thoroughly enjoying Miss Stella. Miss Sadie is doing well having this pup around…keeps her moving and young!

      We see our Moree dog in Junebug. She doesn’t have his mountain goat grace, but she loves to walk along the back of couches like he did.

    Congrats, Larry! I can tell you are one happy dog!

      Happy, spoiled, and a total punk, which is why we love him.
