Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and Birthday Lovers: I am 52 years old today, 6-15-09!
OMG, OMG, OMG! It just seem so surreal that 52 years ago I looked like this! This picture was taken at one day old.

Look how beautiful my Mommy is!

I think the cutest thing is how she put that little point on my head! I love that. To this day I pull all of my hair up on top of my head. LOL

I also hold my left hand to my face like that when I am thinking or resting. Is that too funny? Instead of the baby bracelet (which I still have, of course) I wear the HOP support bracelet. I put it on years ago and I have never been without it.

Who knew that a little baby like me would grow up to love basset hounds so much? I just find that a blessing. A pretty little baby blessing.

I love my life. Thank you Mom and Dad. My journey through my life is like winning the best lottery ticket ever. The ticket of life! Sweet!

More loving life and basset hounds later……….Love, Cat, Chaps and Emma

    Congratulations Cat, I was surprised that you and I are the same age. I thought you were in your early 30s.

    Bassets everywhere are luck that there is someone special like you in this world.

    Maureen – bless you. That was a great gift! LOL

    Love Cat

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

    Your Mom is so very pretty in that picture and so are you! It’s so funny cuz my Mom used to do that with my sisters hair too. She always made it stick up in the middle. I always thought it was so silly looking but I was 4 1/2 when she was born and everything was funny to me back then. Ha!

    As Maureen says, you are such a special and sweet person and the hounds ARE lucky to have you around. Take care and continue with your life’s journey. Your doing a great job!
