In November our sweet little kitty- Sparkle- died. I was going to write about this sooner but in all seriousness it was too hard for me to write about. Now that time has healed the wound I am going to take a go at telling the story(i guess thats a little too dramatic :D).

It was just one of those days when we had been in a hurry since we woke up. We were getting in the van to take Mal to dance and Sparkle was trying to climb into the van. Malarie pushed her back out and she ran under the van. I got down on my hands and knees to she if she was clear of the tires and I didn't see her. So we piled in and started to back out. Because I wasn't 100% sure where she was I moved so slow. I hoped out to close my garage and I looked over and saw her kind of rolling around. I finished closing the garage so Malarie wouldn't see and went and picked her up. I could tell something was wrong but all of her legs seamed to be fine but one. I just thought that she might have a dislocated leg. I put her on her bed and ran Mal to dance and ran home-it took about 2 min. When we pulled in the garage she had fallen off her bed and was rolling in some dirt that she had kick out of her potty box. I scooped her up and ran inside and gave her a bath. She was so sweet. After I got her cleaned I was blow drying her and she was just looking at me like "save me." Then I saw her take one last breath. Ahh, it was awful! I finished drying her and ran and got a blanket and I called Trav and then I started crying and he kind of got upset. Our kids just loved that kitty! I didn't want to tell Malarie. That was the worst part about the whole thing. She was so upset for days! All she would draw was pictures of her kitty. And say thing like," I never even got to hold her kitty's!" and the I would say, "She never had any kittens." and Mal would say, "I KNOW she NEVER got to have any, cry cry cry."

I felt so bad. I had never killed anything or watched something die. It was horrible. I don't know how people hunt and kill animals.

A few days after Sparkle died and my kids were still in mourning one of our fish died. At first when I saw it I thought "oh no Sparkle the fish just died!" but then Malarie pointed out that it was Tessa the fish. Mason wasn't too upset over the fish but he keeps saying that we know only have one pet named Sparkle because mom ran over the kitty Sparkle.

So Trav felt so bad about Sparkle that even though he didn't want her to begin with he told Malarie that she can have a cat in the spring. Anyone know of a cute cat that is preggers?
