BoB

The Lord knows just how to get to my heart. Put a cat in front of me and I melt (on most days). Forget what everyone says- how they have their 'own will', how they won't come when you call them, how they always just annoy you by getting in your face- blah blah blah. None of these bother me at all. Just one look at those tiny, innocent, cuddly eyes and I'm a goner.

Such is life when I meet Bob. I have seen many cats throughout my day, but none as cute as Bob. It was during the afternoon that one of our friends called us concerning a certain cat that had ventured into the house. For Sarah, this was like a nightmare since she is allergic. For me, an inward excitement!! We pulled up to the house to find one of the cutest creatures I have ever seen. He hobbled outside and just gazed up at us with these sweet eyes. See what I mean:

How can you not love this thing?!

For the concern of Sarah (and we all knew that we couldn't keep a cat) we left it outside in hopes that it would scurry on it's way. Needless to say, he was still around the next morning, and the next, and the next. Over the past few days he has become a little like family- even Daniel is a softy for him.

Over these past few days we have bonded tremendously. The kids and I play with it often, especially Jacob. He loves him! He seems to fit right in the family here through his interest of God's Word...

Unfortunately, he will need to go. There has been a few attempts here and there, but so far none successful. Anyone interested back home... I can look into the expenses of shipping animals. It can't cost to much, they are in over supply here.
