the girls next door

I've been having a lot of fun with the girls next door. Last Saturday I read them Mousekin's Golden House, and unbeknownst to me, their mom took some pictures:





I said offhand to the older sister that she should write a story ... and the next day SHE CAME BACK TO ME WITH ONE. (I felt so influential!) And it's adorable. It's about the family's cats, Tulip and Cheeto:





"When we first got him [Cheeto] was in the downstairs bathroom"


"But after he had his surgery they have been fighting a lot more, which is weird"


"All about Cheeto: He is a very playful kitty. He is very cute."


"All about Tulip: She is old in kitty ages, but she is still cute."


They've also joined in when I've done chalk drawings recently. Here's my cardinal with red-winged blackbird on a pumpkin...
red-winged blackbird, cardinal, pumpkin

And their accompanying pieces of art:

... I'll leave you with the chipmunk king. Recent rains have erased him, but he was a just and generous overlord while he reigned.
