It's Mamma's Birthday Month!!

🎈❤🎈The greatest thing about August is that we celebrate mamma's birth all month long!🎈❤🎈

The best thing about celebrating all month long is that Mamma has incredible friends - and when they send her cool gifts, they usually remember to get us stuff, too.

Check out what arrived this week from our friend, Jules!!!!! ❤
We could not believe our noses! Jules sent us (I mean, "mamma") the most incredible catladybox ever.

When Ma brought the mail in we instinctively could smell the incredible aroma inside this beautiful cardboard box. We could not wait for her to open it so we could get at it.

Inside there wasn't just ONE toy for us - but TWO. Two toys!

It's Mamma's birthday month and WE get two toys. Talk about being blessed kitties!!
Since our mamma is a writer, one of the toys was really smartly considered.
Stivali especially likes the pencil catnip toy, she plays with it every day since we received these awesome presents.
Ma will hate me for posting this pic of her,
but the catladybox included this cute t-shirt for her.
I just had to share how great it is.

 
 Thank you, Jules, for thinking of us! We love you!

We love our nonno!

Nonno Tony is the greatest.
He came today and cut our hedge.
We did not even ask him to.
It is a beautiful day to open all the windows and breathe in fresh air.  Nonno Tony uses loud cutting equipment, but me and Stivali don't mind at all - we watch him from the window and are happy he is here.

Today is a good day. 




We love our grandfather.  We are grateful.  We are happy. 😻😻

In memory of my older brother, Kismet.

 My older brother, Kismet, passed away eight years ago today.

I really looked up to him and liked him a lot.

I used to follow him around and want to be his friend. He wasn't interested.

My mamma wrote about him on her blog a lot, and wrote a tribute to him after he passed away.

Read about him here.

Eight years have passed, and I know my mamma still misses him a lot.  Sometimes I catch her calling me his name on accident, and I never mind.

Hold close your loved ones. Your time on earth is not guaranteed.

My ma had these great canvases made of us.  
Checking out Kismet's portrait.
