My Little Emerson

Dear Diary,

My little Emerson is getting to be a little old man.  This summer he spends a lot more time dosing in the sun and the grey, especially around the chin, seems more emphasized in the light.  He still is the sweetest and gentlest companion a person could have and we enjoy each other's company so much.  He still likes to play with his mouse on a stick but not as much as before.  He's slowing down.

It's hard to watch our beloved fur babies age.  We expect them to live forever.  I am giving him a lot more cuddles now and he seems more inclined to sit on my lap and enjoy a good chin tickle.  I love my little boy and I make sure he knows it every day.
