Who Needs Feather Pillows Anyway
Earlier this week our darling Ursula (who is now much larger than those photos) was spayed. The boys have been lovingly concerned about her well-being. They have made certain that she had a soft bed consisting of my best feather pillows, comfort food such as Goldfish crackers and raisins, a family heirloom blankie to chew on, more attention than a celebrity and have reminded me numerous times to check her "intestines"...also known as her incision.
But the cutest moment (of which I have no photos because I was caught up in the preciousness) came when they wrote get well cards for Ursula...got on the floor with her...held the cards to her face...and read them to her. I have no doubt that she understood every word.
Yes, these are the same boys who wrestle one another to near death and make fake farts.
Oh! Your boys are just too sweet, Melody. I especially love "Mac Printing Co." Here's wishing Ursula a speedy recovery...although my wishes cannot compare to the tender care she's already recieved.

Hi! Thanks for giving me feedback regarding my blog loading. I've been trying to clean out the sidebars a bit and see if it has any effect on how quickly the pages load.

I think handmade cards from children are among the most precious of commodities the planet has to offer. Those are some super sweet kids you have there, Melody : )

Such sweet boys! I know I would feel so much better after the love and compassion shown to Ursula. I'm sure she will soon be back to the rambunctious playmate they are used to.

Coming from boys who wrestle each other to near death only makes the cards that much sweeter! :)
