Miracle of Life
Well our female cat, Callie, had kittens on Friday! It was so weird how the kids knew all day long that "today was gonna be the day." They took her out to her designated birthing center (a box in the playroom) about 15 minutes before she started having the kittens! They got to see and be a part of the whole thing! It was so cool! She had three completely white kittens and one little orange one-- I think the orange kitten was a gift from God just for Maya. Whisper is Sarah's cat and Callie is Benjamin's cat and Maya wanted an orange kitten but I couldn't bear to get another animal just now. When we found out Callie was pregnant I began asking God to give Maya an orange one. And He did! Just because He can do stuff like that! :)
Watching the whole birthing process with Callie led to some very interesting questions concerning the upcoming labor and birth of our own little Will-be. I promised the kids I would not be eating the umbilical cord-- no matter how nutritious it is for a cat Mommy!
So, now the question remains.... anyone want a cat?

Haha! How fun to live in your household and to have these conversations with your kiddos! I miss you a lot, and have been trying to call you for weeks. I actually had my hand on the phone today and was about to call you when we had our poop-tastrophe...I also worry about how when I have time to call you, its probably not a good time for you...I need to stop worrying and just call! I will call you sometime this week. I think of you daily! Love you! Miss you!
