Playing stratego before school

Our neighbor called this morning to say that one of our kitty's was hit by and car and in the road at the end of our driveway.  I looked out the door and saw Peter and Sophie so I knew it was Steve.  I was so sad!  I called Jared and then went out to the road so I could move him out of sight.  We didn't want to the boys to have to deal with that before school.  The boys have spent so much time with this cat since he was born.  They play with him in the sand box, the sand hill, the barn, and even in their new fort.  When Jared and I walk the trail in our woods he'd follows us.  And if he lost sight of us he'd cry loudly.  We'd call to him he'd come bouncing along after us.  We all really loved this cat.  Adam had the hardest time. 

Adam had everyone sign his Copper Harbor rock and we put it by Steve's grave.

We buried him by Truman

The children are learning a lot about life and death. It truly is a lesson to learn. Eli looks the best in his costume. Woo, woo.
