This year we still celebrate his birthday as a tribute. It's a double celebration because we're also celebrating our new addition. I wish they could have known each other, I think they would have been great friends.
"I'd like to add some beauty to life," said Anne dreamily. "I don't exactly want to make people KNOW more... though I know that IS the noblest ambition... but I'd love to make them have a pleasanter time because of me... to have some little joy or happy thought that would never have existed if I hadn't been born.” ― L.M. Montgomery, Anne's House of Dreams

Happy birthday, my sweet boy
Today would have been Jasper's 16th birthday. I really wish we had made it that far (we went to a 17th birthday party for another Golden once so it can be done) but I have to admit I didn't really count on it so I made a big deal about his last few birthdays. Last year we had a great big Happy Birthday cookie with frosting and everything and, of course, lots of pictures were taken each year. I don't think he enjoyed posing for the pictures but I cherish them now.

Of course, no birthday celebration would be complete without cake - a big cake and a little cake so that nobody feels left out.

Pull up a chair on the porch, have some lemonade and leave your comment in my mailbox. Thanks for visiting my little cottage!
