Dr.Seuss's Birthday and #ReadAcrossAmericaDay !!


 Nope this isn't Levi and Roary but it IS an AI Generated photo of Levi and Roary in honor of Dr.Seuss's birthday and Read Across America Day!







That's what happens when the Mom is too lazy to create a photo herself! But, I actually love it!

It wouldn't be right if I didn't share portions of my previous posts to honor this special day!

Because this blog LINK is still named in honor of Cody and it was and always technically will be HIS blog (no matter what the name is), there is no way I won't include memories of Cody from this most special day!

Enjoy!

Today is the day we honor Dr.Seuss, my all-time favorite children's book author!! I memorized "The Cat in The Hat" when I was four years old and never looked back! I read every one of his books that I could get my paws on.


Today is the day,
it's truer than true,
today is the day 
we tell Dr.Seuss
"WE LOVE YOU!"
We GRATEFULLY
THANK GLOGIRLY DESIGN
FOR DESIGNING OUR GRAPHIC!



Cody won this hat
that was made by
Ms.Ellen over at 
15 and Meowing 
March of 2018







March 2, 1904
is a date to be remembered
evermore! 

Write it on your wall!
It is  the birthday
of probably the most
popular children's book author of all!

It is only appropriate on this
most special day,
that we wish 
Dr. Seuss the
 HAPPIEST
of BIRTHDAYS!!

It is also Read Across America Day
which is ALWAYS celebrated
on Dr.Seuss's birthday


"Across the country, thousands of schools,
 libraries, and community centers
 participate by bringing together kids, teens, and books"

Reading to your children is one of the
BEST gifts that you can give them!
Instilling the love of books
to your children  will bring them joy
for the rest of their lives!

Love Your Pet Day!

 Yes, yes,  I know it's EVERY DAY but today was designated as "Love Your Pet Day." A day to pamper and spoil your pets (as if we don't do that EVERY DAY), and to appreciate the time we have with them. I love my boys so much,  even if much of the time they drive me crazy!

one of my favorite kitten photos of Roary

Roary is such an intelligent and interesting cat. If you snap your fingers (literally), he comes running. Loves to carry his toys in his mouth (neither of my other cats ever did that). He's an expert at opening drawers and closets and knows exactly where certain toys are hidden in those drawers! He loves going on top of the shower. He is obsessed with the dishwasher. He adores teasing the living daylights out of Levi (and seems to nap all day just to drive Levi crazy when Levi goes to bed in his crate at night.). He "talks" a blue streak.. Prefers sleeping in boxes rather than a cat bed. He is loving and likes to cuddle...if he's in the mood.


Levi is our BIGGEST challenge. Stubborn, determined with the strength of an ox he continues to help Lenny and I add gray hair to our already gray hair!!!! He's super intelligent, rather high anxiety (at times), extremely food motivated and feels that every single human being that was put on this earth is here for the sole purpose of giving him kisses and petting. He LOVES people (unless they are trying to bathe him!!) He likes to be our shadow and is one of the most affectionate dogs I have ever known. THAT is what saves him!

I would love to hear about some of the quirky things about YOUR pets too! Leave a comment and tell me!! Also, give them extra kisses from all of us!

Happy "Love Your Pet Day!!"

Valentine's Day 2025 (Love is In the Air!!)

 Valentine's Day is definitely in the air around our house!! A few weeks ago Levi bought a Valentine's cookie for his girlfriend at Canine College, Sadie!! Then, Sadie bought one for him!! Levi and Sadie have been an "item" for some time now. Levi is definitely smitten!!


Sadie is the large Shepherd mix with the curled tail. The photos aren't good because I took them from the camera while I was watching him at Canine College !

Then, poor Roary is still looking for a girlfriend! Anyone interested?


Who could resist that face?????

Last but definitely not least, I want to wish my husband Lenny a most wonderful Valentine's Day!!! I love you, hang in there, this is one bumpy (or should I say "lumpy" ride???? Bad joke I know!) Love you always!!!!


And...to ALL OF YOU we wish you a Happy Valentine's Day!!!

xoxo
