12 o 13 I wasn't no sure we share Lincoln with the owner, but he love me because I bring him everywhere, we live in a second floor of small house, but when the owner open the door he immediately came to visit us and get a cookie, we love him and we don't past a week we don't talk about Lincoln that was a part of our family and he spend almost the day with me. Then win the first place for the picture is a something for him and not for me.
