We must pause again....

When October decided to roll up there was no guarantees of a different pace, only different days, different temperatures...and so, this past weekend as the boys and I gathered for a brief powwow we agreed that we needed to pause and reflect...

Ollie gave me his best attention. I was reminded of Marilyn Monroe for some reason

when I saw his fluffy stretched out paws.
Too shy to be photographed incessantly he changed positions and hid his gorgeous paws. He is too naughty!

Mr Sweet Pants Augustus was observing us silently...

He then glanced at me a sweet glance

and gently chuckled, entertained by his ginger brother!
Augustus chose this reading for reflection...

O SON OF THE WONDROUS VISION! I have breathed within thee a breath of My own Spirit, that thou mayest be My lover. Why hast thou forsaken Me and sought a beloved other than Me? (the Hidden Words)

and from the look of it Ollie really enjoyed it. He practices meditation actively.

I decided that I liked being referred to as "The Son of Wondrous Vision"...and decided to focus on that.

Later that afternoon Mr Sweet Pants retired to the indoors where he rested his tired paws

and the rest of him too.

Some of his time was filled with making kisses for you guys...to wish you a happy end of October...
The owner of these little paws chose to play outdoors and I am certain that he too made kisses for you.

Happy end of October everyone!

Ciao!
