Today is Koa’s 1st birthday! We didn’t do anything special. I just got him a birthday hat and had a fun time trying to get him to tolerate it on his head for long enough to take a picture. It’s amazing how quickly he grew and how much he’s changed. Jes always gets so angry when he walks around the house and sees “reminders” of his puppy days…a scratch on the sofa leg, teeth marks on the wall, shredded carpet, etc. Now he’s calmer, doesn’t try to tear holes in my pant legs, can hold his pee all day long, and goes to bed at 10:00 each night. Only 12 more years to go!!
