Happy Birthday to my lil monster, my little Winston T (for Trouble), my sweet boy!!! I can't believe you are 7 years old. You have the energy and spirit of a teenager, but today in dog years you're 21 years old!!!! BOL - definitely old enough to vote, so I guess I should listen to your position on things more carefully! Old enough to drink alcohol, but OH NO not gonna let you do that. I promise to give you more treats instead, ok? Since you are old enough but you are not driving, I promise to take you on more rides and trips with me, ok? More beach time, I promise!!! And I'll continue to throw a ball for you and take you for walks. But I promise to find more interesting places to walk.

You are such a joy as part of the family. You're such a little instigator, but you're so smart you know how to get the others blamed for your naughtiness. You're so quick at learning. You love running, chasing and wrestling with Finnegan. I love how you always have to have the last word, no matter what you're being told, even if being reprimanded. You're such an independent little thing. But you're also a little love. I remember the first year we couldn't even touch you without you snapping at us. You were so nervous. Now you crawl into my lap and love being loved. You've come a long way, little man. And we all look forward to many more years together.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY sweet boy. Your momma loves you.
