We were so saddened to here of the death of our wonderful prophet President Gordon B. Hinckley. We also can't help but be glad that he may now join his beloved wife. I imagine it was a sweet and triumphant reunion and am grateful for that knowledge. We love and will miss him.

Lucy's Special Day
Our little angel was blessed yesterday. It was such a fun day! Thank you so much to all those who brought food and service and most of all, for coming and sharing this special occasion with our sweet little Lucy!
Andy gave such a wonderful blessing. One thing he said that stood out to me was that she has a gift to light up those around her. How true that is!
Our Furry Friend
What is it about Elmo that draws children to him? Is it the red hair? Is it that high-pitched, squealy voice? Perhaps it's that he's covered in fur and can talk, unlike most of our furry friends. Whatever it is, I don't know how Gracie ever lived without him!

The Fall of Tuch Partuchi
Tuch Partuchi began life in an abandoned gutter with his brothers and sisters. He was found by a family that didn't want cats so was then brought to a beauty school that I taught at. He was the "annoying one" but my desire to be a mother overpowered my ability to see reason. I took him home and after a full night of constant meowing, bottle feeding and rubbing to assist with bodily functions, I was told to give him back. What kind of mother would I be! (If I had done so I would have perhaps had the same inclinations with my own children!) I refused and after the meowing and such desisted, he became the king of the Palmer household. He was bathed at least once a week, his coat was gently combed almost daily, and he slept in our room on a thrown-like chair. When friends came, he was the source of entertainment with his 5 foot leaps and flips into the air.
After a year of this bliss we brought home a suprise. To him perhaps an unpleasant one. Gracie came and poor Tuch received less baths, less combs, and less chances to show off his talents. Even his throne was reduced to seclusion with the black kitty recluse (Sasha) in the basement. Once our pride and joy and now an occasional visitor. Do you think this poor creature is devastated? He at least is angry and harbors some kind of resentment towards the not one but two babies that took his place!But to tell you the truth, he could care less.
Girlfriends!
Meet my two best friends Gracie and Lucy. It's true Gracie has been known to beat me up and though neither are great listeners and they both tend to whine or cry the majority of the time - they always make me laugh and are the joys of my life! And best of all they need me as much as I need them!
