Suzy-Q

A dreary Thursday morning. I'm still drying out from last night's softball practices. Chrissy's coach called her practice off but we were already there for Allie's team. There was another coach pitch team there so Chrissy practiced with them. She told me she didn't need to practice because she was already a good player. That's a lot of confidence for someone who has only had one practice under her belt! Allie is starting to come along. She made some good contact with the ball during batting practice. She also made some good plays at second.
Tonight Allie has her school skating party. It is only for 4th & 5th graders so she is really excited. She got her class t-shirt yesterday ( red for Mrs. DeLong's class). She'll wear it tonight skating.
Suzy-Q the cat had kittens yesterday. We haven't seen them yet because she had them outside somewhere. This is her third litter but none of her other babies survived. We hadn't seen her for at least a month and when she showed up at the back door, she was very pregnant. The girls have tried to follow her to find the kittens but no luck(?) yet. Suzy is named for my sister because she was born when the girls were at her house after the flood.
Although I certainly do not need any more animals here, I hope Suzy's kittens are OK.

good for Chrissy - confidence means so much, and you can't teach it so she's already ahead of the game. Skills will come easier if she starts with plenty of confidence!
