Joe's Birthday Tribute


Happy Birthday Joe!
ok, so that is a few days late, but I actually started on this a few days ago.  Joe turned 13 on Friday, February 26th.  Here he is having his birthday breakfast: 
Then, out of curiosity, I looked up his birthday photo from last year:
I couldn't believe how much he had changed.  He does look so much older.  But, seeing him everyday as I do, the change is gradual.  I didn't really notice it at all until I looked at the pictures side by side.  So, then I went back and looked at all of his photos from last year.  It was fun to see the changes month to month.  So, even though it will make this post really, really long, I am posting some of my favorite photo's of Joe over the last year.
