life at kitten speed

athenagrey Everything takes longer. That's just the way it is, because there are no straight lines or direct routes for a kitten. All that movement and energy goes in circles and spirals and sometimes straight up!
As for me, everything takes longer because there are two to feed, brush and snuggle with. The salt shaker has to be rescued from under the sideboard, and the sewing supplies have to be stored on the impossibly high shelf.
Most times, I just give up on sewing and sit and giggle at the sight of Indigo carefully batting a snippet of thread. Was Amber so involved in everything when she was that young? It's hard to remember, but I think so. I remember my mother's account of making soup, which ended, "and you can ask Amber for the recipe, because she helped each slice of vegetable go into the pot."

After two years of insisting that the tree must be untrimmed and that is their job our two have apparently become indifferent adults.
Happy Holidays to Amber and Indigo
