** ATTICUS **
I haven't posted any pictures of our dear little Atticus lately so here are a couple. A few mornings ago I didn't make the bed before I left for work. When I came home, here is how I found Atticus -- snoozin' on my side of the bed.
After my first reaction which was *swoon! - he loves me*, I called his name and said "time to get up!" He then pulls this little number on me...
Oh PAH-leeze! How could I possibly resist the sheer cuteness of it all? He got to stay and finish his nap. :-)
** OUR FRONT LAWN **
This is a zoomed in view of our front lawn. Glen hates this to pieces! The lawn is full of blue star creepers. Violets too but they're not yet in bloom! I love it BUT I see his point. This man I married, Glen, loves his lawn. He takes care of his lawn. He feeds it, he aerates it, he waters, he mows it, and he nurtures it. So although these little flower gems make the lawn look like the milky way (squint your eyes!), he hates them. Sigh. I won't plant blue star creeper or violets in our next garden. For that matter, I won't be planting lemon verbena or ribbon grass or mint in our next garden either. This one is only a test!
If only that lazy little lima bean Atticus would get up, go out front and pick all the little flowers from the lawn, then all would be right with the world.
It's in your paws, buddy, make the world right, OK? Atticus?
Aw geez, he's probably not even on-line today...

Atticus is such a cutie pie! Yes, he does loves his mommy! He, He, Glen cracks me up! Michelle, I wanted to let you know I did squint my eyes and they do look like the milky way! I'm such a silly girl, huh! Luvs Malou

That’s a nice name for a pet! What’s the inspiration behind that name? Does Atticus like to go there in your lawn? An area filled with greens might attract him… Or maybe he just found a better place to take a nap, which is your bed. LOL!
