Farewell to Kitty

julianna | June 29, 2008

Yesterday we said farewell to our new furry friend. A lady called to claim him. We received a number of calls for people looking for gray or black and white cats, so I was almost surprised when the lady said it was an orange kitten she was looking for…surprised and sad. She’d [...]

This is a picture of Laura this afternoon. I should have taken it before we left for church, when she still looked well groomed, but oh well. I didn’t and I really wanted to get this up tonight for my mom to see, so here it is…fuzzy hair and all.
