Happy Birthdays
Audrey, Quince, and June, July 16, 2007
More celebrating is in order today.
My beautiful niece and my little cat share a birthday today! It couldn’t happen to more adorable beings.
I remember that my niece took her time arriving in this world, possibly because she knew what an unlovely place it is, but more likely because she was putting on the finishing touches before making her beauteous debut. She was just about the prettiest baby I have ever seen, and set an impossibly high standard for those that followed. I have spent the rest of my days being slightly horrified by the appearance of other babies.
Happy birthday, Petal!
As for June and Audrey (above), you can see that they were pretty much the nieces of the cat world. In that picture, they are about two weeks old. Notice that they are together, as they always were.
Audrey is celebrating her birthday by chasing two very loud and argumentative Steller’s Jays in the garden, and she’ll get her very own tiny tin of repulsive wet food tonight, the cat equivalent of birthday cake.
Happy birthday, precious girl!

What a gorgeous photo of Quince & her little ones.
I think I would prefer Jays a apposed to the Grackles that we get here.
