Nine - Sweet July, Part 2

Jonas' ninth birthday month (Sweet July) continues...

Tuxedo mysteriously went blind when we were Kelowna last (the heat/smoke? a tick?) We feared he was seriously sick and may die prematurely. We still fear this. The vet prescribed prednisone to reduce any potential infection/swelling in his central nervous system. Well it seems to work because he's got his sight back. The only negative is that he can now see the kids again and still gets jealous and angry at them occasionally. Oh well, back to the old Tux.

We ride!!!

July 27th we let the kids ride to the nearby park alone, for the first time. We hesitated as we hadn't had the courage before to let them leave the complex without supervision. They made it home okay but it's still a weird feeling having 'bigger' kids.
