RIP Bolt

Dear Cadence,

I'm very sorry to say it, but last week your beloved cat Bolt was hit by a car and killed. It's been a very sad week and we all miss him like crazy! He really was a great cat.

Since Bolt is now gone, we went out and got you 2 new kittens. They are little brothers and we named them Max (after Max & Ruby) and Walter (you wanted to name him Water, so I thought we would change it to Walter). They are very sweet little guys, but they just aren't Bolt.

Yesterday you said to me, "Mom i like these cats, but I want my Bolt back!" It broke my heart! Bolt will always be a huge part of your life and I'm sure you'll remember him forever. I know Max and Walter will never replace him, but they will be a good distraction.

RIP Bolt! We will forever miss and love you! I love you Cadence.

Love Momma

Christmas & New Years

Dear Cadence,

I know this is a little late, but Merry Christmas. Of course you got totally spoiled! People sent you gifts in the mail from BC, which you loved getting! Mom and Dad spoiled you, as did Santa.

This year you were terrified of Santa again. We went to the mall to get a picture with him and you didn't want to go near the poor guy. So like last year, Mom and Dad came in the picture with you. We also saw Santa again at the Finning Christmas party, you cried when I put you on his lap. Good times.

On Christmas Eve we had Papa, Omie, Daryl, Candice and Nic over for dinner. Mommy mad her first turkey and it turned out pretty yummy. And of course you got to open one present Xmas Eve, nice new pj's.

Christmas morning you woke up so excited to see all the gifts under the tree! Papa and Omie had stayed the night and we all watched while you opened your presents. You got soooooo much stuff! Clothes, toys, babies, doll house, Zhu Zhu puppies, money, laptop, and lots more stuff. I'd say you did very good! Such a lucky and very loved little monkey.

New Years Eve we went to Daryl and Candice's house. You had a great time playing with Leah and both of you stayed up until midnight. However within half an hour of ringing in the New Year, you and Daddy were both asleep on the couch.

I hope you enjoyed the holiday's as much as we enjoyed spending them with you! I love you so much.

Love Momma
