Scrappy (the cat) would not tolerate another living soul using him as a pillow or hugging on him ~ other than Harper. :)
Three good things:
1. A birthday lunch with Molly and Harper
2. An original hand-painted birthday card from my granddaughter...she was so proud when she handed it to me.
3. People who run toward a disaster, jumping over barricades, tearing off their shirts and jackets to use as tourniquets, with little regard to their own safety, in an effort to help those in need.
Beautiful - good old Scrappy. I do wonder on occasions like yesterday whether I would run towards or away. I'd like to think towards but it really does take a special bravery - especially when faced with horrific scenes - and I'm not sure I wouldn't end up running away. Very special people who go to the rescue.
Two of your favourite people Peggy & ours too! What a lot of pleasure our pets give us & good for the young to appreciate animals. He is a good boy. I always love what Harper is wearing , she has some really pretty clothes.
I have saved lots of my special hand written cards & believe me the older the sender gets the more precious they become!!
I agree with no.3 so much...sending our condolences to all in your country!
So precious, Peggy. I find our animals are so patient and so tolerant of the grandchildren. I'm sure Harper is kind and gentle so Scrappy knows a good snuggle is coming his way when she is around. Agree with number 3 - so many unsung heros.
Oh what a dreamy look!! Scrappy is a sweet fellow to be so accommodating.
1) whose birthday?
2) my mom makes me cards (on her computer!)
3) “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”
@bpaquette :( My birthday-4/15.
I don't believe there was ever a kinder, gentler soul than Fred Rogers. I loved his calm, reassuring, and genuinely good influence on children, and really people of all ages. And it's so true about helpers bringing a bit of sanity and humanity to a chaotic and terrifying situation. I've always believed that one of our primary purposes in this world is to help elevate life in anyway that presents itself...big or small.
Gorgeous beautiful Harper _ I've known you since you were born :-) well .... I've known that your grammie loves you beyond comprehension , that you love exploring and experimenting, that you have the most delightful smile , you can easily pick up a snail if you're dared , you delight in bubbles and the feel of the breeze , you have a gentle caring soul , I've ear-marked you for Jack :-) and despite this really hard world - you'll never, ever lack for love ♥
