This Captain's log...

is a little different from the earlier ones.

The first thing to make note of is that I cannot call it a Captain's Log because I have been demoted, or at least I feel that way.  So on that afternoon that we walked towards the back I made note of the vine crawling the wall, 

the light that poured through the tiny tough pine leaves

and the soft waving palm.

I took a good look at this pot of jade and impatiens that happens to be a personal favorite,

and then my eyes fell on our precious cat boys, perhaps I need to call them cat men?!

That thought had not left my head that Mr Sweet Pants indicated how much he would like to have a hat made of jade leaves, a sort of cat beret for when he goes on his reconnaissance missions, and I naturally had to agree that he had the right idea.

Then he relaxed and went into his own world, that place where he can sit undisturbed, and that is the second thing to note, his desire to be treated as an adult while still enjoying some private sweet talks!

Brother Ollie, Mr Puffy Pants, who was listening from in front of him could not resist

a big laugh but it was of the silent and fast type

so Augustus would not know what happened.  I admired him for his sensitivity towards

his brother who is now becoming a young cat man.

Ollie wasn't sure what a cat man was

but he went along.

I chose to end this log with a passage for reflection from our favorite Hidden Words:

O SON OF THE THRONE! Thy hearing is My hearing, hear thou therewith. Thy sight is My sight, do thou see therewith, that in thine inmost soul thou mayest testify unto My exalted sanctity, and I within Myself may bear witness unto an exalted station for thee.  (Baha'u'llah)

Cat boys sent love and kisses and best wishes for a happy weekend!

Ciao!
