After a really rainy Monday, we finally saw some sun. I took advantage of the fact by snapping some pictures of Chloe. My husband bought me a gift certificate for my birthday for a “Snap Tote”. You put a picture of something on the side of the bag… so I wanted one with Chloe. (I figured I could use it in place of the backpack I’m carrying. It’s killing my shoulders!)
I turned 42 on Sunday. Someone asked me how old I was. I had to think: “Let’s see it’s 2008 and I was born in 1966. So 2008 minus 1966 is….” I realized that it just doesn’t matter anymore how old I am! As a matter of fact I’m SURE someone asked how old I was several months ago and I said, “I think I’m 42…!” (and I wasn’t yet)
Our annual certification day is Saturday! I know Chloe will do great on her skills test… it’s ME I’m worried about! I have to remember responses to access questions and challenges, plus take a written test. Yuck.

Happy Belated Birthday! Your azaleas look beautiful and Chloe is posing perfectly! I love this time of the year!
By the way, I “tapped” you for a meme. . .don’t know you do them but you can find more information on my blog. I would love to know more about you! I won’t be offended if you are not interested! I normally don’t do them either. . .

Such a lovely pic of Chloe! I hope to have many such pics of “Woof” when I get him! (I’m impatient already, and I know I have at least another 18 month to 2 years and probably more…)
Tell us more about your annual certification test – what is involved, and for which organization? ADI? IAADP? Some other org?
Love
Elizabeth
