Catherine has endeared herself to some of my good friends, three sisters who live together and have two beautiful cats. When they headed out of town for a trip, they asked Catherine to cat sit for them. She was THRILLED. Not only did she get to hang out with Mika and Al, she also got to pretend she was living all alone in a townhome during a good chunk of every day. I told my friends that if they needed a fourth sister, Catherine would happily volunteer:
Feeding the kitties (Al is waiting impatiently)
When Catherine was at school, Elijah and I got to feed the kitties.
He was so happy every time he got close enough to pet or play with them.
They are not used to small children, so it was hard to get them to cooperate.
He was so thrilled just to get this close to Mika.
Catherine does not love Primary Activities for Girls. She's not particularly close to any of the girls in her group and she complains often about how the boys have better activities, like bike rodeos. Which is why I was shocked to get this picture from her leader:
I guess this activity must have been a hit!
I didn't get any pictures, but Catherine and I did go to watch her elementary band teacher perform in a local jazz band. It was really cool to get to see a whole bunch of professional women musicians, plus the music was awesome! Catherine was so happy to get to see her teacher (plus she got extra credit for her middle school band class). And I loved getting to spend a few hours one-on-one with her!
