“Yes. YES…”

So happy for you two, shoes…

I was just thinking how nice it is…in the early days of this thread, I’d see it bumped and hope that it isn’t bad news. Now I see it bumped and get excited hoping for news like this. It’s such a difference…

I can’t see any way you could possibly be happier than we are. 🙂 Well…maybe.

It _was_ wonderful, just too short, of course. We spent some time just farting around the house, and then to his parents’ house for Christmas dinner. He was completely worn out by the end, especially from transfering in & out of the cars, but it was really nice to have him home for a bit.

And I have a lovely snapshot on my phone of him napping on the couch with Al, our 18-lb. Maine Coon, snuggled on top of him. 🙂
