NOT playing favorites

Dear Calpurrnia,
your father expressed an observation that I am always addressing things to your brother,
thereby leaving you in the corner playing with a leaf.

My darlink blue eyed innocent baby.......MOMMA loves you dearly.
(not at 3am mind you.. when you jump with all your 4000 pounds squarely on my stomach, but that is another post)

After all my precious little blue eyed one, who ELSE would think to tear ALL of the garland off of every surface it was attached to and then sit in the center of the crime scene blinking up at me in all innocence.........
( the phrase..***good thing she is really pretty*** comes to mind here dear)

And my tiny baby girl........... I am so happy that you have so little on your fluffy little mind that you are happy in the corner playing with a leaf that you stole off of momma's patchouli plant.....which by the way...... please tell me it was your BROTHER and not you that put all those tooth marks in that poor poor plant???

I am happy when you are happy.........

But since your father wants me to talk to you as well as your brother, I feel perhaps I should mention that purring in momma's ear at midnight will not get you another helping of canned cat food. Churkeling in that same ear won't work either.......... try your father dear, he can't resist you......

And this whole thing that we turn into blue eyed kitten eating monsters as soon as we come downstairs to the main house........ well darlink.........that has to stop..... you don't realize that your meow is now drowning out police and fire sirens......
however WE do realize that and are looking for hearing aides as I type.

As to the little presents you left momma by the front door.. I don't find them quite as endearing as you probably do........
and even your great great gramma is ashamed of you.......
however I did NOT tell your father....... let him be happy in his ignorance.

I also do know it was Thaddeaus that disemboweled that doll in your crate.........
however I also know it was YOU that took off with wigging fiber........after all I saw it all over your mouth and back........

And my little lovely, I also know it is YOU that keeps stealing the Q-tips off the workbenches and out of the medicine cabinet in the bathroom....... you have a stash of Q-tips all over the house........ people already think we are slobs..........could you PLEASE put them somewhere else...... try the black hole that Thaddeaus has deposited all the cat toys into.

And darlink, stop sneaking up on poor ancient Amber and bopping her on the head while she sleeps, you know it takes her a while to wake up and then I HAVE TO EXPLAIN to her what happened........ she doesn't always believe me.

and my darlink........... one more thing......... those little pumpkin headed dolls are NOT cat toys...... no matter what you think......... they are not.
so stop taking off with them......... and don't tell me your BROTHER made you do it dear, Daddy may buy that one but momma knows better............

so my little darlink blue eyed one who can do no wrong................
momma loves you very much
it is just that your brother needs more 'reminders' then you do dear.........

with love
mom

  2. Little vixen! Thaddaeus is just using her as a diversion, though, so watch your head!

  3. Well, when I went to take a pictire (I did, I really did) I discovered a big old ugly MISTAKE right in the center of the most elaborate part. So I'm seeing what I can do about that before I trot it out for the world to see. I might just start again, since it's so much fun.
