Red Thread...

There is an ancient Chinese belief which states that there is an invisible red thread that connects each of us to all of the individuals who have been, currently are, and will in the future be important to us in our lives.

This red thread can stretch, twist, and bend… but will never break.

Just Being Katie

One morning I was getting ready for school, and Katie wasn't up yet. I remembered she had been using her Chromebook in her room and that she needed to remember it for school. When I was upstairs, I grabbed the Chromebook for her so it wouldn't be forgotten, and it made me smile when I saw the note she had put on it.

You might as well make fun reminder notes.

Sharing School Work

When my sister is over and Katie is doing school work, Katie always shows her everything she has been working on.

I like to share with Aunt Jennifer.

General Washington

General Washington always tries to keep a quiet eye on Katie.

Who was I looking at? Katie, of course!

Mr. Limpet's Ears

We love that Mr. Limpet has unique ears. Both of his ears have now been ripped in wrestling matches with General Washington. Both tears on in the same spot.

When the cats wrestle, they're usually playing. Mr. Limpet's tears are small, but look just right on him.

A Sore Thumb

Katie hurt her thumb while playing volleyball at school. It's not broken or swollen, but it's sore, and it makes it hard to write.

I never realized how important my thumb was until it got hurt!

The Return of Nigel

Our Christmas elf has returned for the season.

Nigel is a well-behaved elf!

A Commonality

Katie loves to wrap up in a cozy blanket, and so does Mr. Limpet.

The only thing he'd like better is to be buried in the blanket.
