Guess What??

When I dropped off Bogus on Friday they asked me when I would be ready to foster again. Of course I said anytime....well, what I said exactly was "Fill the void Bogus will leave." Well, guess what...they called me yesterday and I have my next fostering assignment. I am getting a Mama Cat and her one week old kittens....I spent my evening last night researching what I need to do and I am picking them up today at 2pm...pictures to come! Yahoo!!!

Bogus, Bumpkin, Bumps, Bogie

If you know me, you know about my nicknames. I gave Bogus plenty of names and loved him enourmously, but...today I had to take him back the the shelter, my fostering duties are done. Both Bogus and I cried in the car on the way there. We sat in the parking lot and cried and snuggled before we went in. I delievered him to the foster coordinator with a quivering lip and I just made it back out the door of Operation Kindness before breaking down big time. I knew I couldn't keep him, but letting go wasn't easier for it. Vince even felt so bad he said we could work it out if I wanted him to stay. I just knew I had to do it. I remembered why I decided to foster. It's not to keep every animal I can keep, it's to love every animal I can love. It's not always easy doing something you are passionate about, but it's always right. Bye, Bye little Bumps...I miss you already. You are gonna be one hellova cat!!

God Never Gives Us More Than We Can Handle

A sweet couple we know is going through the unthinkable. They lost their precious 3 1/2 month old baby girl unexpectedly yesterday. Please pray that God will give them what they need to handle this.

Pasta Night!!!

Last night we had our friends Jamie, Nick, Steph and Anthony over for dinner. The Boys played Tiger Woods and Madden while the girls made pasta from scratch. Jamie, Steph and I took a class a few months ago and we finally got together to put our education to the test. It was a lot of work, but VERY delicious.

But before that, Vince was in the yard working on getting our fruit and vegtable garden ready....I can't wait to pick my own produce!!!
