My first born. She goes by many names: Reese Cup, Stinky Boo Mow, Mur-mur and Sister. She came to live with me a week to the day before I found out that I was pregnant with Reagan and we have been partners in crime ever since. I remember her *kittenhood* just like it was yesterday. I still get a glimpse of my kitten every now and again. Even though she is an adult cat at 4 1/2 years old, she still loves Martha Stewart, butter beans, cat nip and smelly shoes *really, don't ask* I love her, I love her, I love her, I love her.

Some religions believe that the camera captures your soul. Yes, yes, I believe they are onto something. Although I can't claim to capture your soul, I promise to capture a glimpse of it.

Where did my baby go? Where can I find her? Oh, I know! I may not see her anymore, but I know she is there. She is there when she cuddles up to me at night with her head between my neck and my shoulder. She is there when she scrapes her knee or her tummy hurts and she calls for mommy. She shows up when the thunder is loud and the rain is hard and jumps into my arms. Sometimes, my heart aches because I want another baby but I can't imagine having to share my time with anyone else. I know that Reagan needs me but I need her too.
I told my Mom tonight that my goal is for her to be sleeping in HER bed in HER room by May when she turns 4. I am not so sure about that. Not because of her, but because of me.

aren't they cute together? here is reagan's newest addition to her list of *frayands*. we were excited to see her come visit and sad to see her go (her and her mommy). we hope they come back very soon!! we all meet people along our journey in life, and some of them, well, you just know that they will be friends for life and no matter how far you are away from them, they will always leave their mark on your life and your heart. thanks for being our friends, michelle and carmarelly-booty-smelly
