Hi Mary,

Oakley has turned into quite a handsome young man. Tessa has taught him to chase a ball, though he still defers to her and “wants to be a pet.”

He has a loving temperament, stable as a rock, but clearly wants to protect his territory and his people. Both of them continue to be wonderfully gentle with children (and infants).

Best,

Andy and Cheryl 9/22/2010
