Happy Birthday Little Boy!

(Finn as a little tiny baby)

Dear Finnie, (yes i know Finn is a dog and cannot read this)

Today you are one year old. This morning you didn't seem to know that today was different than any other day. You were especially sleepy. Seems like yesterday that you were still a tiny puppy.
Some of our favorite memories of your life so far:

• Meeting you at a gas station in Hopkinton and seeing your little head sticking up out the window of the truck you came in.
• The time you drank about 15 gallons of water and peed all over our couch. I was convinced you had diabetes but Dr Tucker told us it was just a puppy thing.
• You sleeping flat on your back - who knew dogs did that
• Watching you do circle track dog over and over
• Your pant biting phase - glad that is over!
• Letting you sleep in bed with me for the first time (look how that turned out - now you rule the bed)
  
• Your first trip to the beach and digging in the sand makes you go nuts!!
• You running down the dock with an engagement ring on your collar

and so much more!!

Here are some of my favorite pictures of you over this past year. Thanks for giving us lots of laughs and teaching us lots and lots of patience. I hope we have many many more birthdays with you!
