Even Better, Has It Really Been Six Years?!

Traditionally, Mother's Day weekend symbolizes two things:

1. A day to honor our mothers
2. The celebration of Wrigley and Gracie's birthdays, which is officially May 12th
   

As hard as it is to believe, our little baby kittens are now six years old. For those that don't know, Wrigley and Gracie are sisters. They are the product of my brother Frank's cat Danger and some cat that I have never seen. When Danger, her full name is Danger Kitty, first became pregnant, Marilyn and I immediately laid claim to two of the kittens. My brother was more than happy to oblige us, and on that fateful day in May of 2002, the litter was born. One cool note to this story is that Marilyn and I actually saw them being born.

We were on our way back to my old place in Lisle when Frank called me to let us know that Danger was in the process of having the kittens. We headed straight to my brother's place and watched quietly as Danger did delivered her precious gifts. It was honestly, one of the coolest things I have ever seen. Danger knew exactly what to do. The information that had been infused in her by nature worked like magic as she instinctively took care of her new babies. As luck would have it, four of the five kittens stayed in the family, including Wrigley and Gracie. So, we would like to thank Frank and Danger for giving us two fo the best gifts we have ever received.

P.S.

A belated Happy Mother's Day our mothers and the seven expecting mothers that we currently know.
