14


This sweet little pug was my Valentine's Day present of 1997, and it is also the day my beloved McDreamy walked into my world. Little did he know, fourteen years later, he would still have the package deal! 

Happy Birthday Ashton ~ you fill our hearts with joy.

    How wonderfully fantastic! I can't believe that a single Valentine's Day brought you so much. There's nothing like unexpected surprises in life. Hope you have a fantastic Valentine's Day, my dear!

    What a treasure this picture will always be for you..! Our 15 year old Australian cattle dog "Pico" passed away a few months ago and I am so grateful that I have digital portraits of her to gaze at when I miss her...which is often.
    Enjoy every moment with your sweetheart Ashton... he's adorable!

    Did McDreamy give you Ashton? Or was it just a case of sweet serendipity? So happy for your happiness! Can't wait to hear the beauty that will come out of this fourteenth year! xoxo
