another day, another kitty

Though our hearts may never be the same, we've made room in our home and hearts for another kitty. Daisy Mae joined the Sublett clan yesterday. She came from the SPCA, and she's Levi's cat. All of our kids love their animals, and Levi was/is especially broken up about losing Daphne. He's a great, sensitive kid.

When I stop to think about it, I am amazed at the way our hearts open to animals. There's something special about the bonds that grow, the capacity to love, the desire we have to cuddle, play, and protect...I thank God for our animals and the life lessons that God brings our way through them. We get to teach our kids about responsibility, care, compassion, provision, fun, nurturing...all good stuff!

Now if we can get through another 2 weeks of a litterbox in the kitchen.
