Is it hard trying to pick up vixie? She must be heavy.
I wouldn't say it was very hard, but she was definitely the weight of a small child. As her weight began to immobilize her as she got older, I would always pick her up and quickly move around the house, swooping her up and down as if she was "flying". She loved it! You could tell by her eyes that she still had a strong sense of adventure that she was just unable to pursue anymore. I made sure to do whatever I could to spark that excitement inside her and make her last years as pleasant as possible.
