Sometimes her “abracadabra” comes out more like “alibaba,” but who am I to judge a magic word? I just wonder where she heard it. Either way, I’ve gotten pretty good at dropping into instant sleep (with snores and everything, of[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Kia has some great ideas, just ask her! She’s also kind enough to tell us that we have great ideas, occasionally. It’s good to know all my ideas aren’t bad ones. At least she’s amenable to alternative ideas. Better than[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Arwyn makes some of the most horrifying noises I’ve ever heard. She often bears down, scrunches up her face in concentration, then blasts it out loud enough to hear across the room. Then she gets a look of satisfaction that[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I’ve been accused of being a silly monkey/cat/monkey-cat, as well. Then again, I’ve been called much worse things in my life, and being a monkey-cat could have some perks. I’m sure that they’re extremely agile, have claws AND opposable thumbs,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
