A boy and his cat

The boy child got a new friend this year.


She started out very very tiny, but the boy child loved her anyway.


The two friends became very close as the days went on.


And the little tiny one grew


and grew


and grew.


The two friends did lots of sleeping together.


But they did other things together too.


like eating,


opening Christmas stockings,


play fighting,


And just hanging.



I still think their favorite activity is sleeping though.


Happy 17th birthday,  Mr. boy child.  I love you.

Congratulations on the good growings-up of all the fine children of your house--both the very furry 4-legged and the somewhat less-furry 2-legged variety. :)
