Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2004. Mattie was almost two years old. That day we were sitting on the couch reading books together. I think this moment captures the love we shared for one another. As Mattie continued to grow and mature, he would then look deeply into my eyes, flutter his eye lashes against mine and touch noses! Those were the days. All I can say is if Mattie were alive now, my life would be much better. I have no doubt he would be an amazing ally and would be very upset with what has happened to our family.
Quote of the day: You have been offered “the gift of crisis.” As Kathleen Norris reminds us, the Greek root of the word crisis is “to sift,” as in, to shake out the excesses and leave only what’s important. That’s what crises do. They shake things up until we are forced to hold on to only what matters most. The rest falls away.” ~ Glennon Doyle Melton
There are some days I do not feel like writing. Today was one of those days. For the past two years, I have developed a friendship with someone in England. We met each other in a virtual support group, and we have become friends, helping each other navigate intense heartbreak. In any case, I think it is hysterical that I learned about "NYC Alley Cats" from my friend in England. She sends me a clip daily! I think these videos are so creative and down right adorable, I am sharing the site with you. It is sure to bring a smile to your face.... especially if you are a cat lover! https://www.youtube.com/@LexingtonScoopCo
If you want a good laugh, this is the clip I received today.... featuring British Cats versus the NYC cat pack! I just love the commentary, costumes, and the cat names! Absolutely hysterical.
