And, today Jazzy turns 9. Here is a snapshot of the last year.
All of her dreams have come true this birthday. For years she has been asking for a pet. Dave and I are not really pet people and wouldn’t even know where to start. Last year we gave her a life-size mechanical dog??? He just didn’t really cut it! 
Jaz was desperate for a real pet that she could cuddle for hours on end. Last night we presented her with her own guinea pig. She named her ‘Ginger’ and after cuddling her for an hour said, “I just feel like the luckiest child in the WHOLE world.” I am so happy for her. And surprisingly, I find I am rather fond of Ginger too. So much so, that we returned today to pick up her sister from the litter. And to my delight, Will has named her Freddie!
