All last year, Brittani requested a cat. I kept telling her no, for 2 reasons. 1, I am highly allergic to cats, and 2, I wasn't sure she was ready for the responsibility of having a pet. A few things happened to change that.
Our wonderful next door neighbor took in another neighbor's pregnant cat when that neighbor moved. Cat had kittens on my birthday, and neighbor offered them up to anyone who wanted one. Well, it must be a sign, since the kittens were born on my birthday, so we decided to take one.
The kitten has been a lesson in responsibility and compassion for Brittani. It is her job to make sure the kitten has clean water and food in his dish. It is her job to use the scoop to scoop out the cat chunks from the cat box, and together we make sure that he has clean litter. And occasionally she needs the reminder that 5 out of 6 ends are pointy. :)
We have her Science and Handwriting books, and will be starting next week. Still waiting for her Math, English, Spelling, and History. And Muzzy for Foreign Language is going to be her Christmas present.
