Fifteen years! Where does the time go?

Today, November 23, 2011, is the fifteen-year anniversary of the day my family adopted Sable. Fifteen years! That's more than half my life. I really can't believe it. If you had told me even last year that Sable would still be alive to see this day, I probably wouldn't have believed you. Don't me wrong, I'm not complaining. I ♥ ♥ my puppy, and I'm happy that he's still with us, but he's been slowing down a lot lately, and I find myself wondering how much time we have left with him.



This is the oldest photo I have of me and Sable together. He's only about five months old in it. It was taken by Grandma on Sara's birthday in December 1996, just a few weeks after we first got him. Look at how tiny Sable is, and how young we both are! It's unbelievable!

(P.S. Making this post has made me feel really old.)
