Aby-a-Day – 14 September: Gun-Hee’s 12th Birthday

This Sunday, 16 September, would have been Gun-Hee’s 12th birthday.

These photos are from his first and only birthday in 2007.

I had gotten these balloons from some sort of work-related function. I brought them home to see if Gun-Hee would enjoy them.

As you can see, he did!

Compared to Jacoby, Gun-Hee was far more agile. He could jump very high and often would leap onto your shoulder.

He also tended to stand on his back legs more than Jake ever does.

Even though he’s been gone 10 years, I will never forget him. Happy birthday, Gun-Hee.

  1. Some are so extra special and in a brief lifespan, carve a firm place in your heart. So sorry he didn’t stay longer…

  2. Crying here. So sad. It’s not fair! Only one birthday! That picture of him reaching for his balloons is a keeper!
