For the Love of Kitty Kats n' My Cousin, Emmett ~ #11

After returning to my office from a week of away for funeral services, mourning the truly tragic murder of my cousin on Friday, March 11th, I saw this and immediately thought of Emmett. Just not sure if the two kitties represents him as the big daddy cat with an infinite focus upon his 5 precious littles of his own, or does it represent him and his own mother...? And in the latter case, which kitty represents whom? Is the big kitty his momma or is the big kitty actually Emmett, touching noses with his little petite momma? Either view would be appropriate in so many ways. And note that this calendar card is actually from March 11th...

Today I feel stuck - and no, I won't elaborate on that.

Why I Love Mah Honey-Man ~ Reason 66

Because after the anger has passed or the tears have dried, he shares with me the belief that there isn't much in our lives that is ever that bad. We are always reminding each other how fortunate we are, that we shouldn't complain (even when we can).

Gratitoode

(inhaling deeply) There is sooo much to be thankful for in my life.

While lunching with some lovely friends today, I found myself talking about my mum for a moment. Twelve years might seem like a mere drop in the bucket compared to the total years spent across one's entire lifetime.

I am so very grateful for those first 12 years of my life spent with my mum. She will always be an enormous part of who I am today and forever.

Now I'm off to claim my lil' babe from her preschool, ready to eat her darling neck as my dinner appetizer.
