Tongue, again!

What's the deal with this tongue hanging out again.  I think it's almost over as this morning she had no sign of it. But for about the last two weeks Katie has had her tongue out all the time and this has happened before, about every 9 months to a year it seems to happen.

When we were at horse therapy last week one of the therapists said it could be due to a growth spurt.   She explained why and it made sense at the time, but I have no idea how to put it in writing as I cannot remember all the specifics.

Makes me nervous as she's constantly trying to walk around and I'm afraid she'll fall and bite her tongue!

Today I had to leave her for a moment to let Paul in the front door and as we walked back into the living room, there she was walking to us from the family room, about 30 steps.  Exciting and scary all at the same time!
