Judith

 Here are some pictures of my new kitten Judith.

I decided to go with the established family theme for her name (for example all of the dogs my family have ever had, names begin with a "T")  For the Cats it's biblical names, my cat before was named Esther. It also helps that the name really suits her. Though my papa and older brothers are still teasing me by saying that her name is Spike (which is the name they decided to name her on my birthday as a joke)  Now they are still calling her Spike, so I guess it will have to be her middle name. Judith Spike, rather odd but oh well.

She is the most affectionate cat I have ever owned. It would seem that she has two purposes in life.

          1.to be petted all the time, constantly purring.

          2.to wake me up at 5am every morning.

She has so far succeeded at both of these goals, and believe me waking up at 5am every morning is not helping my sanity! Unfortunately it is probably good for me.

My 17th Birthday

Well I have made it to seventeen. It has been a great day, I feel like a princess! I suppose that might have to do with the fact that all nine of my siblings seem to have made an effort to say "Happy Birthday" to me every five minutes or so. And whats a birthday without a birthday rose? So here is one of my favorite birthday vintage cards

We just finished having cake and presents, and guess what my parents decided to get me? A kitten! I'm so excited! They said I could pick her or him tomorrow (that is if I can find one) I wonder what I should call her/him? I have a couple of ideas, most of the names are from literary characters, but I am willing to hear any suggestions. I will post later with pictures of my kitten!
