Final yr, my rescue Emmy, pictured above partying onerous in her 2023 glasses, injured her again. It pressured our household to decelerate, loosen up and provides Emmy the time she wanted to heal. Slowing down is a problem with two younger (and really energetic) boys! However we slowly slowed down, and Emmy additionally slowly healed and is now fortunately inflicting all kinds of mischief in our home, once more. Slowing down was good for all of us. We plan to do some extra slowing down — leisurely walks, extra cuddle time, baking selfmade canine treats — in 2023.
