A little catty

This is my cat, Buster


His Royal Highness knows exactly how gorgeous he is.


The other day I found him waiting patiently in the sink.
He wanted a drink.
Fresh from the faucet.
He's a little spoiled.

"Enough pictures, Woman."
I hear him sigh.
"Can I please have my drink now?"

I'm sorry, buddy. Just can't resist one more.
Check out that look of patient suffering.
He's such a martyr.

Don't be fooled. He got his drink. He always does. Right before I brush my teeth every night he jumps up and hogs the sink with his furry behind while I patiently wait for him to drink his fill. Then he hurries and hops on the bed to spread out and hog as much of the foot space as possible before we get there. Yep, it's good to be King.

A little Sunshine...

My how time flies. It's been many moons since I posted, and it's been 6 years since a little ray of sunshine landed in our lives. I won't say all the cliche things I want to say, but just know they are in my heart today as my baby girl turned 6 years old.

"Mom, last night I said 'goodbye' to 5!"

It's one of those laugh with tears in your eyes kinda moments.






I think I've known from Day One that this child was a force of Nature. Just as sunshine can be warm and cheerful it can also burn you with it's flaming heat. She's fire and light, warmth and energy. We're lucky to have her. Happy Birthday, Sunshine!

Love,
Momma

Is it a sign?

So, these were our fortunes from tonight's Chinese dinner:

Big Sis:
"The current year will bring you happiness."

Awesome. Can't wait!

Little Sis:
"You have a unique personality."

Smirk. You got that right!

Me:
"Be willing to admit that you may be wrong, you're only human."

Stupid Chinese food.
