NY...prayers for your Kathryn.
Here's something that may put a smile on her face.
If you tease the cat with the mouse pointer on its chest or stomach it will purr, and meow also, by rubbing its forehead with the pointer. As you make a slow circle around the body, not only will its head/eyes follow your pointer, but toward the top, its paw will go up, and when in front of its paws at the bottom, the foot comes out like it wants to play with your mouse pointer.
Am so glad to see Ash Wednesday arrive.
While others love Christmas, it's Holy Week and Easter with its message of Redemption and Hope which mean the most to me, and these weeks of Lent are the preparation.
Life would be far, far emptier without God's loving offer & gift.
