~Our funny little kitten. She is so silly and playful. Pumpkin is gentle with me, but fierce with everyone else. We think that she was a feral kitten that someone found and brought to the vet's. It is so interesting to see the difference with Myst. Pumpkin is a really good mom and it is interesting to see how much more playful and less wild Myst is. I am wearing my hoodie (still have resisted turning on the heat) and she likes to curl up inside it and sleep, kind of like a joey in a kangaroo pouch. loll

~I just read Eight Cousins by Louisa May Alcott again today. I love that story.

~Ice water. Sometimes we just don't realize that we are dehydrated. I am so glad that we have never had to be in either a famine or a drought that affects our drinking water.

~The little paper umbrellas that can be put in drinks. Lissie just gave me one that is white with black skulls on it. It is so cute, I have an idea......

~Watching Unwrapped on the computer with all of the kids piled in my bed. I like that they like to spend time together. The only problem was that it was hard for me to not fall asleep. :-)
~Listening to the testimonies today. I love that everybody that talked about Pres. Monson mentioned his sense of humour. I love that about him too. I can't keep a straight face when he starts laughing about something in his talks. I bet he was a mischievous little boy.
~Japanese pear apples. Don't know whose idea it was to pair the two, but it was genius.
~Modern technology that lets us put Shon on the speaker phone on my cell so that he can join us for family prayer.
