Today just keeps bringing me around the amazing women in my life.
I woke up to my amazing Lily Ruth's smile.
We took a walk. I found a kitten. Not a metaphor - a real, tiny, freaked out kitten... who looks almost EXACTLY like Bing did at that size. If, when I return to that location later today without my dog and my infant, said kitten is still there, I will take him/her in until a home can be found that is NOT OURS :-) My Mama's best friend (since they were 3 & 4) has rescued animals my whole life.
**EDIT - Ya'll already knew I was going to end up bringing that kitten home, right?...
He's too cute for words - I just know that somebody is missing him terribly. I will find them! Craig's List and Kinko's, here I come...
I made Electric Flapjacks for brunch. This is a great recipe from my childhood. Here it is in it's original format:
I could also hear my Mama and my Grandmother in my head while I cooked - 'the pan is ready when water droplets dance on it's surface' and 'pancakes are ready to flip when tiny bubbles pop through the top'.
I used the hand mixer passed on to me by my friend Crystal when she got an awesome stand mixer so she could make Monster Cookies in a more efficient manner.
I made tiny, baby-sized pancakes and even an 'L' for Lily just like my Mama used to for us.
I listened to the Spice Girls and 'shook it' in honor of my Kittyn.
I made tiny fridge magnet toys using Samster Mommy's idea
It's been pretty great :-)
Did I mention how awesome my husband is?
Well, he is. He and Lily Ruth bought me tiny speakers and a 'desk' for my laptop. He claims to be feeding my internet addiction. Enabler.
I AM LOVING MY LIFE, YA'LL! Feeling pretty thankful.
