She is growing like crazy. And, for the most part, she and Codi have become friends.
Codi still maintains her status as feline Queen and can put Miss Daisy in her place with little effort.
Note the evil eye.
The chair legs make a great playground.
Miss Daisy performs on the parallel bar and while Codi glares.
Daisy, like most kids, loves to play with empty boxes.
She also loves empty cigarette packages. Don't fuss at me. Please. Thank you.
I almost have her trained to bring them back to me so I can throw them for her to chase. I actually had another calico cat that I trained to fetch a ball. I'm not sure Miss Daisy is as bright as my Callie was, though. The jury is still out on that one.
She also love to play with pens.......
But by far, her very favorite toy is still the string one....not the stuffed mouse on the end of it, just the string intself.
There's one other thing she really likes to do. She just adores biting buttons! That one scares me a little, for fear she might actually bite on off and swallow it. But it's hard to make her stop.
Can you tell I'm wearing one of my old painting shirts?
Codi continues to be her own regal self. She very graciously sat for a formal portrait.
Pretty girl!

Gladolus update!
Remember these?
Today, they look like this.
Plus, the very first blooms on the wild verbena! I love that verbena!
This is what we're hoping for.

I did my daily painting. (See yesterday's blog.) Here it is.
There are things I like better about this one.
And things I like better about the other one.
But I learned something from doing each of them. And I am looking forward to doing more.
I'm grateful for Codi, Miss Daisy, the promise of Spring and the ability to still learn.
And I'm grateful for you.
