Tonight Mike took the Big Boys up to the apartment house to do yard work. I decided to take myself upstairs for some quality Mommy Time. I drew a great HOT bath drawn in the jacuzzi tub, added the bath salts I got for Christmas - see how much time I have to use this stuff right away? MMMM, a wonderful bath (even though that was of course the time Zach picked to want to talk to me about his day- and we had already discussed his day when he got home from school!) and then my yummy smelling vanilla body lotion. Now I'm sitting here watching M*A*S*H re-runs with Zach in my lap.
Zach learned to draw hearts this week. He keeps cutting out hearts for me and then writing on them "I <3 you" (only the hearts he draws are not sideways!)
This evening Mike and I went out to get the kittens from the garage. We took them outside and set them in the grass for the first time ever. Our little MaMa took the opportunity to eat her dinner, then she came out to join the fun. She got nervous if the babies wandered too far and she kept calling them back to her when one or more started to get away from us. I wish my kids would come back when I called them the way the babies did for Missy. Mike, as always, was the kitten whisperer. All animals love him. At one time 3 of the kittens had used their claws to climb up his pant legs as he was kneeling in the grass, and the 4th was sniffing the grass by his shoes. I've now seen 3 of the babies nibbling on cat food. Tomorrow they are 5 weeks old, almost time to find them new homes. Mike is a sucker for Precious, and she is the one I am pretty sure that I have a home for. Although he also likes Saanctuus, he's got a nice coat. They are all cute if you ask me and each has it's own personality. Happy Mother's Day, Missy, and Happy Birthday, Babies!!!
